Well, it is very important to measure unwanted noise generated by the system. I can still remember the one that happened recently to me when I was recording late in the night. I didn't notice that my interface was adding a low hiss, which I got to know during playback. It was pretty annoying when I realised that after the whole time that I spent.

I also think that when we talk of external interference, it can come from WiFi routers, power wires, fluorescent lights, phone chargers, and, in some cases, nearby appliances.

I will say it is necessary to monitor spaces between devices such as your laptop and mic when recording because the noise from the laptop could interfere in the quality of sound that you make. I've always been careful about that.
