Sure, there is an obvious advantage.
The green laser "touches" that point in the sky you are aiming at. The red
dot finder has parallax and can dew over.
That said, the only time I would consider using a green laser as a finder
is when observing alone, or when mine is the only scope around. Even then,
I'd just flick it on when pointing.
I think it is really a bad idea in groups.
I think we may specifically ban them at Shingletown.
I find them annoying.
