Plan DCT at a VFR level, it's just a plan, by being "in the system", with about 6 keyboard clicks the ATC at the console will access to your details vs probably 20-30 keyboard clicks.
It's about a more user friendly system, easier for the ATC which in turn makes it easier for the pilot = best service.
