====Safety, Non-flammability, Non-toxicity====
Most enzymatic reagents could in theory be aqueous solutions, unlike the acetonitrile organic solvents typically used in phosphoramidite chemistry.

====Recyclability, On-Site Reagent Synthesis====
If most of the reagents used are enzymes, then in theory these enzymes could be made by bacteria and then purified on site. This might mean that reagents could be produced, and modified, by the machine itself.

====Improved speed and efficiency====
It may be possible that an enzymatic method could improve the speed and efficiency with which this reaction takes place. This would be split into two effects. First, being able to make longer strands of DNA (oligonucleotides) would mean that the final product could be composed of fewer parts, which makes the creation of algorithms and strategies for reassembling this DNA to become much easier. Second, being able to make longer strands of DNA faster would cut down substantially on the complexity and time involved with synthesizing DNA.
