Default Clover as a desired ground cover?

I've read positive comments about clover, regarding its nitrogen-fixing etc,
and so instead of classing it as a weed, I have left what I think is white
clover, just a few inches high, to grow in recently-made herbaceous/shrub
borders where it is spreading around gradually. I'm wondering- it can't be
this simple, surely. Is there any reason why I should not allow it to live
there along with the shrubs, geraniums, (minor) periwinkles and other ground
cover plants?
