Only doing a couple boards? Maybe a small room? You can get away with a circular saw and a speed square. Heck you could use a hand saw or even a multi tool for a few boards lol
Doing an entire house in the suburbs? Getting more into woodworking in general? Want to keep this up against a wall and not move it around? This is probably the move

I got the metabo saw that was on sale a while back at lowes (still in the box lol) but really considering selling both and getting this saw...Very tempted.

Depends on how much you are doing. Also depends how much you care about rear clearance.

So just not sure if this is worth to get over say a metabo that cost 200-300
This saw is for people who have limited rear clearance, if you don't want that feature, this probably isn't the best option, IMO.
As for quarter round and baseboard, yes, any cheap saw may do fine, but I'd buy a better blade, more like a fine tooth blade. Do something to fil in the gap for the cut to go through to help with tearout. Cheap pine tends to splinter a bit. You will want it to miter at least one way, but 2 way is much nicer.
