I think a lot of the AI functions like smell, Grunt AI and houndeye group behavior rely on this. A lot of it is easy to miss, like Vortigaunts fleeing, hiding and not attacking below a certain health. Houndeyes for example will react differently to quiet/far away noises than loud startling ones.

Yes, and this should be listed as HL1's main advance, its brilliant AI, which at that time of the release was unlike anything else.
