Linear Path Shooter vs. Circular Path Shooter?

Has anyone considered a linear path shooter for their design?

Everything I've seen on YouTube is built with a circular path. I'm curious if this was for design convenience or there is some magic to the disc following a circular path. My team has proposed creating a linear path shooter with two parallel motors to "spin" the disc down the launch path. Has anyone tried this? If it works, it would make a nice compact shooter.
