I laid 1,200 bricks in a single day on a foundation job in Toledo last month, which was a personal record I didn't think I could hit.

It mattered because it showed me that using a laser level to set my line pins instead of a string line saved me about 30 minutes of setup time per wall, letting me focus on laying instead of fussing with alignment.

String lines are more reliable than lasers for a true level. You might have laid more bricks, but the foundation could be off.

But is it that big a deal?

Yeah, it can be a huge deal later.
