Well, you were asking what it did *better*.
Thus, my response.
As far as I'm concerned, doing frames already puts it ahead of lynx.
And you adding those 4 lines will eliminate the need for me to have the lynx package on my system which is there purely for docbook tools.
Since you say you know how to use w3m, I'm not certain what you're asking about then, you should already be familiar with what its dump output looks like.
But here's a snippet anyway.
$ w3m -dump slashdot.org | head -25
