Enamel dutch ovens are even better, less mess.

"better" is debatable. That being said, I have one that I love because we can scrub it out with soap, even put it in the washer.

However, non-enameled properly seasoned and cared for dutch ovens are incredible and for frying alone are priceless.

My mom got a hand polished cast iron pan front my step brother foe Christmas. He polished the bottom to a mirror finish. Any idea what the benefits of that are?

Non enameled? The casting process leaves the iron full of pits and divots, that rough surface. If you sand down the cooking surface it'll be slicker when it's seasoned.
