Donkey kong's dash attack would be worth it if it was at least a kill move, but against jiglypuff, in the middle of final destination, it dosen't even kill at 500%, and jiglypuff is by far the lightest character in the game
From your channel description and what was discussed in this video, I can see you are casual player when it comes to competitive. You say it's not ideal for an aerial to be a character's best approach option when in general that's been the case for a lot of characters throughout the series. Marth uses fair in neutral a lot, Peach is all about using float for her aerials, MK uses fair a lot, Kirby uses bair to approach. DK can use forward tilt as approach option to space certain characters out and can even beat out MK's mach tornado. You also didn't talk about how DK is susceptible to chain grabs, with having a unwinnable MU against DDD. You didn't talk about how he has hrab release combos on certain characters. He has tools to deal with Olimar and he also does well against Marth. I wouldn't say he is the best ledge guarder but he is decent.
I will never understand the thought process behind DK's dash attack... He didn't get his iconic roll until _Smash 4_ and that's baffling to me.
I also like Super Smash Bros. Brawl and playing as Donkey Kong a lot! And as King K. Rool in Smash Ultimate of course.

Are you in the brawl discord? We should get some games in against each other sometimes
No, I am not.
@supersmashbrosbrawl-rc7uq I can send you an invite if you want. People there are really friendly. The options for online are netplay and wiimmfi.
I can even play a set with you sometime if you want for content. I play as sheik, sonic, and marth.
If you ever want to collab too I'd be down. No pressure though. Glad someone else enjoys the game like I do
