The reason to run AC anywhere is because you can transmit the power with lower losses. High voltage and lower amps = smaller wires.
I left that unsaid in my earlier post so as not to confuse things. After all, if we're running a generator and DC, it's only short distances. Even longer distances, like for low voltage yard lights, are OK.
This is the reason why Westinghouse won the argument over Edison.
