The only reason I would get a bike like this is if I was training or just joy riding for long distances.

A commuter bike should be considerably cheaper and should have more options available for the future if you want to use panniers, fenders, etc.
If it was a $2,000 commuter/utility bike, would your answer be the same? A Surly Big Dummy's cost is going to be in the same ballpark.
