Can I bring something like World Eaters or Alpha legion CSM alongside Daemons in the same detachment and still benefit from Legion tactics and all that? Obviously my Daemons benefit from none of it.

Legion tactics only work if the entire detachment is the same legion.
Split your daemons into other detachments or summon them

Nope. Read the first rules paragraph on pg 157. Every unit has to be from the same Legion in order to gain the Legion benefits. As such Legion units in a Daemon army, or Daemon units in a Legion army, will mean you won't get any of those bonuses. However, you can get around this little tidbit by summoning in those daemon units.

From 'Legion Traits', page 157 of the codex:

If your army is Battle-forged, all INFANTRY, BIKERS and HELBRUTE units in Chaos Space Marine Detachments gain a Legion Trait, so long as every unit in that Detachment is from the same Legion.

cannot correlate their innate inferiority with their inevitable
defeat. It would seem that stupidity is as eternal as war.'
