TLDW;? Will watch it after work, but I'm curious now. 😁
Not as drastic as I had hoped, but it looks like around 5% better layer adhesion provided you increase the flow rate slightly to fit in the gaps. It essentially makes a print that's more solid in the walls.
I saw elsewhere someone doing prints with transparent filament and they were also getting optically better prints with this.
Also, there's a pull request on Orca... Not sure when it'll come out, but they're working on building it into the slicer.
TL;DW: Small sample size aside, it looks like the brick layers could be marginally stronger in some ways, but it can be weaker if you don't also increase the extrusion multiplier since offsetting a column of circles down by half a row in a grid of touching circles will make the circles not touch (hopefully that's an intuitive explanation of the need to increase the extrusion multiplier).
