The sqrt(2) speed increase is certainly a different way to think about things. I imagine it wouldn't coast terribly far on the rollers, and it's not powered through any obstacle in that direction. And sounds like you've considered how it would mess with the driver to be in a constant uncontrollable powerslide.

Put in a traction wheel and you've got a decent crab drive. Two more turning motors for unicorn.
