Ya, when I make levels I tend to spend more time creating custom tiles to make cliffs tile over water and such, for example, than I do on the level itself. However many people DON'T bother to do these simple things and layers can help players tap a creativity that they don't get to experienced when limited by a pics1 they don't intend to edit with tiles.
