They are semi-permanently coupled into two car sets - a DKM/DKT combo can
work with a DIM/DIT as a four car set, but a DKM is not paired with a DIT
(or any other trailer).

That is because of the walkway through and the park brakes. When you apply
the spring park brake in the drivers cab the one on the trailer applies
also.
DKMs are chopper controlled (DJM's are also but DIMs arn't).

There are few other things which I can't remember.
