I have thought so also.

I just wonder why we haven't used them much (that we know of).

During Desert Storm a decision was made not to deploy "operationally" one laser system that was designed to destory enemy optics. I also know of soldiers at the DMZ who would "laze" North Koreans with an AN-GVS-5 (lazer range finder) when they would look through their binos. I don't know the reasons, but my guess is that JAG types claimed it was inhumane.
