Fungi are saprotrophs, meaning they recycle nutrients. Dead matter wouldn't decay if it weren't for fungi. This makes them essential in the environmnet. Without them, dead matter and its nutrients would be locked up.
They are also edible, like ascomycetes and basidiomycetes (morels, truffles, and mushrooms).
However I have not researched disadvantages.
Sorry
