Great statistical work. It's a small sample size but the data is pretty neat.

CNC kitchen also tested this. https://www.cnckitchen.com/blog/brick-layers-make-3d-prints-stronger

You won't find this built into any slicer because some assholes patented it and are defending the patent.

They troll patented it. It was already patented, the patent expired, then these dildos patented it again as an "improved technique" and in their application they pointed to a bunch of patents that have nothing to do with the brick layer method.
