Applying multiple layers of drywall in severe lighting conditions typically leads to improved durability. When drywall is installed in environments exposed to intense lighting, it is subjected to more wear and tear, including the potential for damage from UV rays, moisture, and temperature fluctuations. Additional layers of drywall can provide a stronger, more resilient surface that is better equipped to withstand these conditions. The extra layers help mitigate the effects of these harsh environments by increasing the overall structural integrity of the wall, resulting in better longevity and performance.

While enhancing aesthetic quality is important, it is primarily related to the surface finishes and treatments applied rather than the number of drywall layers. The potential for reduced noise transmission is a benefit of using soundproofing techniques, which involve specific materials and constructions beyond just layering drywall. Lastly, increased levels of paint adhesion can occur with proper preparation and priming but are not a direct consequence of adding multiple drywall layers, especially in severe lighting. Therefore, the best outcome of adding multiple layers of drywall, particularly in challenging lighting situations, is the durability it provides.
