Judging by the use of Surly Larry tyres it's intended to be ridden on the beach and sandy beach paths too. Even pushing a LHT with a trailer on soft sand would suck.
Also...I would personally take a well built longbike over a trailer any day.
If you intend venturing off smooth roads at all, and even if you don't, a trailer isn't fun to have bouncing around and snaking behind you when it hits bumps...whereas a longbike is far more stable, and handles much more like a regular bike than you might expect...even fully loaded.
As an example...riding this sort of stuff with a trailer wouldn't be fun...
