On Windows FastStone is better than Lightroom if you want free software!
The functionality in FastStone is amazing.
Lightroom has a better RAW processing engine without dounbt.
But most people who dont want to do extensive changes to their images would find it a big expense for not a lot extra compared to FastStone.

On Mac then I'd agree with you absolutely.
However for image browsing I find LR less good than PhotoMechanic.  A personal thing.
I use Lightroom for reviewing images with my customers as it is very easy and I can show them selected images by using filtering and keywords.
