The second ball is scored as an autonomous ball, which is 10 points versus 5 for the same ball. Since you still have the ability to get the 5 points for the second crossing (that you didn't get in autonomous) later in the match, it is a net gain of 5 points across the whole match doing the same behaviors. It is definitely "worth more" than just doing it in teleop. 1678 wouldn't do things like this for no reason.

There is no rule that specifically states that you must obey the law of physics during the competition. This may be an oversight. - bmather [more]
