Yea and whatever it's used or not for the story, the quests or the creatures on the road... Even a "cosmetic" (not only because it would have an impact on stealth) D/N cycle would add a lot of immersion and another layer to increase the variety of environment.
In such a game it would definitely be a great feature. We're not talking about Wasteland 3 here (which is a game I love), we're talking about Baldur's Gate 3.
