The video didn't really address the question in the title, which is unfortunate.

Recently I spent a ton of time comparing the stand-alone Adobe DNG converter to what is built in to Lightroom.

Firstly, yes you are wrong - the options in Lightroom are more or less the same as what is in the stand-alone converter.

The big difference is that the stand-alone converter is MUCH faster than what is in Lightroom, but there is a reason for that. When you use Lightroom, it will also embed a high resolution preview so when you view the pic in LR, and for instance try to zoom in to see detail, it will happen instantenously. On the other hand if you use the DNG converter and then import those photos into LR, the hi-res previews won't be built until you try to open the file and it will be much slower.

To me this is the key point in the decision as which to use. After some back and forth I am back to using Lightroom.
