What does this setting do?
Local chat reaches only your immediate surroundings, which makes it the one channel that actually mirrors in-game encounters: you talk to whoever is standing in front of you.
It is indispensable for roleplay and for trading without a leap of faith — you arrange things locally instead of broadcasting positions globally. There is hardly a reason to turn it off.
