I assume that due to the Pi's funky boot process, it's not a
great candidate for your root filesystem.

I see no reason why it wouldn't work for other things, but I
would have to ask why you would want to do that. For the sake
of learning something?

The Pi has limited disk bandwidth and limited network bandwidth.
It's not a good candidate for a home fileserver. It's cheap-ish,
but it's not very cheap compared to a used PC of superior CPU,
I/O and bandwidth. It is small, but adding more than one disk to
it makes it not very small.
