Yes, but not for all photographers. for event photographers and folks who shoot a set of images under similar lighting conditions, it is fine.

Where did you come up with that idea? LR handles batch adjustments in much the same way ACR handles batch adjustments. Its usefulness and functionality is not limited to "event photographers and folks who shoot a set of images under similar lighting conditions". I certainly don't use LR for batch processing, and I am quite capable of taking advantage of the tools and features it provides one image at a time. I am also well aware of its limitations and know when to move to PS.

Yes ACR does all that. And as I've stated LR is simply ACR on steroids.

nospam
which is incorrect.

photoshop and lightroom use the same camera raw (and the same version of it if you have matching ps/lr versions).

PeterN
Let's see. You claim I am wrong, but then say the underlying ACR is the same, but with differences.

the differences are minor, such as control layout, or the inclusion or exclusion of an esoteric feature. otherwise, it's the same and the parameters are the same.

in fact, if you adjust an image in photoshop and then migrate to lightroom, those adjustments will be there automatically, making for a very simple transition.

no steroids needed.
