The benefit of Makefiles is that one is essentially breaking up one project into many smaller projects. My thesis has seven or so real chapters. To build it all takes a few minutes on this laptop - not intolerable but frustrating if one has to do it repeatedly. Using make means a "build" for a single chapter is cached unless the source file changes and so one can see the results of changes to one source file almost immediately.
