Layers vs. Advanced Theme?

Question 1

It seems as if implementing layers is basically the same thing as implementing an Advanced Theme with qa-theme.php. Why would someone choose to do a plugin layer vs. an Advanced Theme? What are the advantages? Is it that you can define your own functions in the Layer?

Question 2

They are very similar, but you can have multiple layers installed simultaneously via multiple plugins, but only a single advanced theme. So if you want to distribute your modifications for others in a plugin, you'll need to use a layer.

Question 3

Also, I think it is important to mention that the theme alters the layout last in order, doesn't it?
