It also greatly reduces the amount of time it would take to retrieve the ball after a truss toss if a human player were to catch it.
Our team was doing the over the truss to the human player shot (we're shooting from the loading area), and I can confirm it doesn't get us catch points. We do it because it's a quick and hard to defend way to get the ball across the field while still keeping control of it(like you said). Plus, the truss points are a nice bonus .
