I have the KAB and divider for both my large and XL. Obviously it works a lot better on the XL because it’s much more space. On the large if I want two zone cooking I usually use a CGS half stone and spider and bank the coals to the opposite side of the stone. However, for reverse searing I much prefer the full conveggtor approach.
On my Large I prefer to do the duel zone higher up in the Egg using a half stone in the Adjustable Rig or Woo Ring. Using the lump divider works much better in my XL but still not as well as half stone higher up.
Like @OhioEgger, I use my divider for my rotisserie. It helps that accessory a lot.
I used it for a rotisserie cook a few weeks ago. Then, the next day I was going to cook chicken. Normally, I cook chicken raised direct. Because I already had coal in the back half and the divider installed, I went ahead and cooked the chicken at the fire ring and used the front half of the grill. It seemed to cook the same as raised direct.
The divider is a bit messy when taking it out or putting it in. You have to have a place for the used charcoal in your KAB when installing. Pulling it out is easier, but usually leads to black hands, regardless.
