Pesticides can drift and can enter the water table, lasers don’t do any of that.

They are not just drifting. A very high percentage of every single million gallons of weed killer used ends up in our water supply. We would be better using any method but chemicals.

Chemicals seem cheap until a few decades from now when we will inevitably have to pay for the destruction of our waterways.
