I'm a newbie but I don't know why I need to use lmtp at all. I was told by the comment in main.cf and master.cf that I can use
mailbox_transport = cyrus
and deliver(8) will be called to do mail delivery. Since I'm runing a single server, is there any obvious reason I should use lmtp at all?

deliver is just an lmtp client. You'll get much better performance by using lmtp directly (it severly reduces the number of fork() calls made per message delivery).
