Compressor Wiring

We were wiring our compressor to the robot today with the compressor leads to a spike and the pressure switch to the digital sidecar. When one of our mentors asked why I wasn't just wiring the compressor directly to the power board with the switch in series. We tried it and it worked great. Is this legal, or do I have to go back to the old wiring method?

Thanks,
Austin
