In addition to sibling replies which point out network-wide usefulness... pihole (or any dns server) can/will return NXDOMAIN instead /etc/hosts which will only return an ip. A dns server can also be configured to match a domain and any subdomain (wildcard match) without having to specify each entry individually.
