Counselor Holzhacker, back in my former life during which I often represented my studio in US Federal court, a 1400mm or better a 3000mm level would have been a marvelous communication implement for opposing counsel, reluctant witnesses and any of several judges!
These days having a digital 2440mm installation level in addition to my 1220mm level and laser leveling/measuring equipment would be marvelous. Possibly I do not absolutely need such a long level, but I work very hard and I feel I deserve one!
I stipulate I will not use such a level to communicate with an opposing counsel!

I find the digital levels far more useful that a bubble level, so much so that my bubble levels have been collecting dust for years. Doing litigation work I found that a photograph of the readout could be used as documentation in cases, for example my firm did a lot of earthquake investigations in Southern California where we frequently measured doors and windows to demonstrate if the building had been deformed.
No I just need to find an affordable 48" digital level, and maybe a 72" one also. [embarassed]
I bought one of the Festool levels for a friend recently as a Thank you. I wouldn't buy it for myself, too much money. However, I would by a 6' or 8' digital for the high price. Would come in very handy for litigation work. It would be nice if Festool did a promo like Stabila does. Buy the 4' and get a torpedo or the Jamber set. That I would go for. The extra features on the Festool are very nice.
