Yes, nelson, effectively it works like notch (of course with other technical solution) but notch we use in vicinity detectors and laser we tend to use as long range detectors.

Notch is usable in relatively clean soil. In soil full of different trash that cover wanted target signal, notch become completely unusable.

The same situation we get with laser at distance. We have 2 or 3 usable molecules at say 100m but before laser beam reach those molecules, beam hit billions of other trashy molecules in air, which give back totally mess of interference chaos and cover usable signals, if it was even created.

Smoke particles detector is another story, it cannot differentiate between different source of smoke.
