LoyceV has a nifty website that visualizes it: https://loyce.club/trust/ranking/. Usernames with DT1 flags are included in the Default Trust.
Yes, but then it still uses third party tool (actually there are lot of them including bpip), well, at least for fetching users.  What i mean is only dependent on forum software/records.

Why is it so important to know the DT members?
Any special reason?

DT status is not limited to "members in DT".  As you mentioned, the members come and go.   DT status can also mean "member's trust rating".  (pos/neu/neg)   That is important.   The DT system cannot be controlled beyond the DT1 placement by Theymos.   After that, those members trust others.   If a user bounces in and out of negative trust, it statistically means more users trust them than distrust them.    If a user has multiple negative trusts even as the DT members rotate, enough members distrust that user that they should be avoided.  

The negative trust is a lot more important than the DT status of an individual.

It is worth noting that one member claimed Theymos paid him to police the new DT system until he was "shit canned".   The DT system is now one of the best tools in determining if a user will run away with your coins.

I guess this is more possible and easier if there is a database table of all current DTs. If not it will be hard, as PowerGlove will program/make all the conditions set by theymos for him to get those list. But yeah, it's possible thks way.

Ideally, DT should only serve as a guide and that it should be removed once the user has formed their large enough Web Of Trust.

But I saying for why not it's shows on the user profile ?
Honestly, most users don't care about their DT status. They mostly don't care about it themselves but other forum members care about it. Is it necessary to pay attention on status that does not belong to yourself, I really don't see this need.

I only care if one member is scammer or not scammer and it can be seen with negative trust score and negative trust feedback that is enough.

You can visit the following link to see the full list of DT1 and DT2 members.

Users that are listed under "Depth 1" are DT1 members and users that are listed under "Depth 2" are DT2 members.
This LoyceV's Beginners guide to correct use of the Trust system can help too.

Tomorrow another suggestion will appear to make a badge for merit sources and we will also call on PowerGlove.
Op, forget about DT status and enjoy the forum. A DT member today can lose their DT status tomorrow. There's nothing special about DT, unless for those that abuse it.

You did well providing the link for other users to be able to also have the view to access who're members of the DTs but I think the Op was instigating in why the DT status isn't indicated in the users profiles.
I also think it'd be a good idea if it could be. If not for anything atleast knowing when users have achieved new remark such as when users are ranked up and made visible for othe users by just visiting their profiles.

PowerGlove has been trying to help by creating a few patches here and there that the admin has implemented. Maybe you could also suggest something similar in that very thread and see if he can work on it.

But I saying for why not it's shows on the user profile ? Like the way forum shows the merit & rank ?
Didn't DT status also important to view on user profile? Because I think it's also a important indicator to identify users reputations?
Just like may other features missing that have been suggested in the past, I think it's at the bottom of the priority list by the admin... That how we ended up with most of this third party tools

My question is already on the title.
Why we have to use the tool to see DT status of a member ? Why not in forum ?
I am sure that's the reason most of the newbies like me to familiar with the usage of trust system and know about the DT members takes years.
