Free gain of a couple of dB due to ground reflection but only of use when DXing due to cross polarisation with local contacts as they'll be pretty much using vertical antennas so that free couple of dB gain for DXing becomes a 20dB loss for local contacts due to cross polarisation.

Learned something. Thanks, M0GVZ
