Aren't you talking about different use cases? You will get more vertical space
when the title bar is removed by the OS/DE. CSD is about adding functionality
to the title bar, basically, and 'make use of this area'. I disagree with this
idea because white-space is my friend, and picking up the window to move it
around is what I do quite often. The advantage is clear on the other hand, and
it's a nice design as shown here [1] for KDE.

LibreOffice uses the system window, and draws controls with the system theme.
Starting with a different VCL never changes the window. 
And we do not have dedicated VCL developers.
