I am assuming personal laser weapons could be set to low-power designation mode until a target is lined up, then a second pull of the trigger would switch to full power.
The result should be fabulous accuracy over and above anything else as there is no 'flight time' or separate weapon characteristics to introduce discrepancies. Point and click destruction at its finest.
So shouldn't lasers be inherently more accurate and reflected in the to-hit?
Of course, for no other reason then gameplay, every advantage should have a cost, and a shooter constantly self-designating should have a high signature, even the X-ray ones (assuming most CA/BD and helmets of that tech have detectors/overlays for display).
And my favorite, using the constant laser user's own weapon as a laser homing self-target designator.
