It's not a question of "benefit...over." Schema.org vocabularies and publication methods are consistent with linked data best practices and, in essence, further the cause. Simple example: when publishing catalogs of datasets, embed markup based on http://schema.org/Dataset in those pages. This will enable popular search engines (and/or other tools) to index the metadata describing those datasets with higher fidelity, leading to more reliable discovery by data consumers. Linked data is useless if it can't be found... -- John S.
