Is the extra tech on the SE worth it for a street rider?

I'm helping my brother choose between the '21 LT and SE sitting on closeout at our local shop. Both have cruise and heated grips but the SE's extra cost mostly comes down to the TFT and KECS. For someone who rides mostly paved backroads, would those really get used enough to justify the difference?
 
The TFT is nice but not a game-changer you know. KECS might not shine though unless you're switching loads often. If your brother's cool with analog gauges and steady suspension, the LT sounds like a good choice!
 
He rarely carries a passenger, so it's important that KECS is best for changing loads. For a solo rider on a typical bumpy road, is the active suspension a major improvement over the LT's setup?
