I never used the one mentioned here, but I don't think a disk sander is

aren't getting good edges off the TS, you need to tune up the saw...

OTOH, disc sanders are the bees knees for miter joints, not just curved edges.

I've used it on miter joints more than once, but I don't think I'd call
it the "bees knees". If your saw is set up correctly, you generally
have no need for a disc sander to fix miter joint problems. The main
secret to TS miters is preventing the wood from sliding when cutting, so
sandpaper on the fence of your perfectly made miter saw table is a good
idea.
