Yes there is a bit of added complexity. By SMTP's nature, the forwarding mail server will need to receive your email, before they can forward it to you. For that reason if you use a service for forwarding, you'll need to make sure you trust the company running this service, or only use this service for low-damage forwarding.

Ok. So this brings no added benefit over the free domain forwarding that's included with registrars these days?

Not all registrars include a free domain forwarding, that's the primary motivation for the service.

From a security perspective, the emails will be readable from such a service.

I think the benefit is to be able configure fwd’ing rules, I believe.
