Also - and this is meant seriously - a sound engineer will see you as a professional who knows what they’re doing, rather than an amateur who turns up with just a guitar and says “where do I plug this in?”, although many will prefer to use their own DI box rather than yours.

It's not quite the issue it used to be as the actual preamps of the desk tends to be on the stage these days and connected to FOH out front via CAT5 digital. So your audio signal isn't going down 30 metres of multicore cable like it used to before it hit the pre amp of the desk.
A DI box is the best option and the simplest transformer ones are best for most applications as they they don't require any power and don't add any noise. Plus they sweeten up the output of modellers
But I think active ones sound better with acoustic instruments, and are essential if the source doesn't have a low output impedance.

The only active systems which are likely to have any issues are older ones like the original single-knob Ovation preamps.

Saves having two boxes to bring.
