Is there anything that a laced cable-bundle does better than a
tie-wrapped cable-bundle?


Lacing might contribute a little extra strength in the long direction.

Plus, as others have noted, it looks better.

And, you don't get flesh wounds from the cut ends of nylon cable ties.

You won't get scratched by cable ties if you cut them off flush with the nut.
