I disagree. A properly executed vertical beacon provides a highly-visible beam of light. It could be handy in huge pits and caves, as was suggested in the beginning of this thread. It doesn't point anywhere but up, so it's not quite the same thing, but it is still a beam of light by which one could be guided.
Don't necroposted especially when this Beacon Block is a completely different idea and concept.

Mostly-relevant I'd say!
