Default To Sump or Not To Sump?

What are the pros and cons of a sump? I have still to make a decision on my first tank, but here is what I see so far:

Pros
  • A place to hide equipment
  • More stable environment due to larger volume of water
  • Location to top up water, add salt etc


Cons:
  • Extra noise of water cycling
  • more locations for water leakage


Care to add to the lists?

Thanks
