A general understanding I think helps a bit, at least to relate to other more classical trained musicians. I don't like to pigeonhole, and generally refer to myself as a multi-instrumentalist now, but as synth/sampler as primary instruments for now, I admire the semi-freedom from rigid perfect 5th's or whatever.. Fretless stringed instruments (bass) and slide guitars are kinda neat...
Sorry for getting a bit off topic... These "good" noise and "good" guitar threads are pretty subjective...

I'm not sure what your point is, but Bailey is a sickeningly talented guitarist. The best my fair nation ever produced, I sometimes think. But it's that problem of Vivaldi making more sense than, say, Strauss - I know who's the more amazing person, but the world at large doesn't really like Dicky Strauss, do they?
NO POINT. AM PISSED.
