LVM is surely one of those things that seems to be overly complex and in the way until it solves a particular problem that you never anticipated having. For example, Mr. Zeff botched up his /home by trying to fuse it with an older /boot partition and LVM could have fused them rather simply and painlessly. I myself have moved partitions around on hard drives and have easily increased the size of logical volumes when adding new hard drives to an existing system. So yeah, it seems that it's a solution to problem that you don't have but I think you are missing an important word...
