I think from things like snakes and ground bugs/critters, there is definitely an advantage. Everything else is definitely more negligible (although I imagine something like a wolf/bear/person may be more disinclined to climb up a ladder).

Whatever the reality may be, that perception of safety compared to a ground tent is what makes this 100% more viable for someone like my wife.
