If you're just printing documents and stuff, laser is fine, but they do look quite bad for art prints, which is the main use case these days for inkjet.

Ok, yeah I can believe that. And if you're using it for art printing, you may even be printing often enough that the feed lines don't dry up and clog.

Personally, I like that with laser prints, if someone gets the paper wet, the toner doesn't immediately run all over the page like with ink.

But again, less of an issue for art prints, as the results are more likely to be put in a frame than left out on a table where they can get splashed.
