How viable is full court Assisting?

Last year we had full court shooters, but because of the rules (and ball size) this year full court shooting isn't an option. However, if a team had a strong enough shooter they could get the inbound from the human player and immediately launch it down the field to a teammate who would ideally catch it and score it.

In this scenario each cycle would be worth: 10 truss points, 10 catch points (in the unlikely case that the ball is caught), 10 assist points, and 10 goal points for a total of 40 points.

I feel like this strategy would be a more efficient way of moving the ball down the field and into the goal than a more traditional approach.

What does the CD community think about this?
