The extra cost is rather significant - the very real likelihood of de-scoring all of the points of the first RC and maybe even the totes. My advice is to not try this in a match unless both of the following are true:
  • Because of alliance abilities or time, there are not going to be enough tote stacks to put one under each of your RCs
  • You've practiced it so much that you know you're a good bit more likely to score than de-score (and I mean practiced with a scoring platform, not on carpet)
