Isn't that one of the big pluses for Legacy? We can tailor it to fit our needs not the way it works for someone else?

There is much disagreement (some of it quite nasty) in the archives regarding this choice. I recommend you enter a cemetery in Address List and run several reports to see how it prints out. There are many, many ways you can enter data in Address List that change how the reports read. Personal choice. Personally, I use Location when an Event has many people who are buried in a particular cemetery. When there are few, I use Address List to avoid too much clutter in Location List. I reiterate; try it out before you choose. In Address List, you can enter pictures and coordinates. Legacy has not seen fit to make Address List a full-fledged list, but it is very useful even so, but it is important to try it out.

Buried date/place does not belong in that box imho, because giving the city of the cemetery tells nothing, and city/town/state is all that belongs under locations. Including the name of the cemetery there messes up the master list of locations, and if you are going to put the cemetery name in NOTES, the location belongs in the same sentence.

Unless there is hidden option not turned on, the only place I can really see to add would be as a event/fact.
