There does not appear to be an advantage to a cooked in kernel vs one flashed on top of a ROM.
Haha. Convenience would be my advantage. It seems easier and more convenient for me to customize the ROM before I flash it.

I've already been flashing a customized version of OMJ's ROM with my apps, updated su, removed other apps, etc.

So just to confirm, simply copying the files in netarchy's kernel zip to the respective directories would update the kernel file, re-zipping, and re-signing would allow me to flash the file with the new kernel already installed correct? And I wouldn't include toastmod.img file anywhere. Just the stuff in the system directory (except for the meta-inf directory of course).
