For me, this seems to have helped improve the clarity of my sound. I then balance my tracks that have been normalised to -3.0 dB and adjust the master volume to raise the overall if needed. This gives plenty room at the top for audio manipulation. These days, though, I normalise my individual tracks to -3.0 db. I've read on a number web pages that -0.3 db gives sufficient headroom. The more effects involved, I suspect that the more headroom is required. When in your DAW, it's important to give your audio sound enough headroom to use effects without clipping.
(The volume slider is set the same for all songs and it's only the LUFS that I adjust to volume match.) In Reaper, I have a file that is a collection of songs and each time I produce a new one, I add it to that collection and adjust the LUFS so that the new song's volume sounds reasonable when compared to each of those other songs I've already done. Like you, I set the LUFS usually between -14 and -15 on my final wav - it varies from song to song.
It's the LUFS that the music people on music sites usually work with these days.
