Yeah, but tunnelling at feet per day is far less of a problem than when they use magic. The old dungeon standard of the magically locked door, for example, or the secret door that closes behind them from the other side, becomes a lot less of a challenge when they can simply blast it out of the way. Slowly chipping away as the noise brings the entire dungeon down on them is easily discouraged...
