And In SQL Developers I am considering guys who also work in SSRS on daily basis. But still should have had done some R&D to know what R can give what SSRS can't give.

Strength of R is not in its graphics libraries, no matter how powerful they are. Its strength is in lightning fast behind the scenes matrix operations, including, but not limited to, neural networks. IMO the strongest point of R on SQL Server is its ability to work with tables as matrices, which makes it extremely efficient.

I am still in awe that I can call R from T-SQL, then T-SQL or Python from R, go as deep as you wish, no practical limit.
