Additional advantages of DSL: better maintainability and reusability of code due to how specific the language is. Domain specific languages may also help to abstract the problem better so that programming is easier (perhaps so we don't have to worry about the internals of the computer since the language has taken care of it for us).
Some disadvantages of DSL: less people in the world know these languages, so support (stackoverflow/examples) is harder to get. Also, integration with the rest of the code could possibly be problematic (we sometimes can't load the DSL onto systems with less amounts of memory, such as trying to load MATLAB onto an embedded system)
