this answers a different question - what is the simplest possible solution to the problem at hand.

answering that requires a good understanding of the problem at hand as well as knowledge to be able to propose a simple solution that could be the starting point, and then searching for improvements over the same - assuming the improvement they bring is useful to the solution at hand.

i guess what I am trying to say is, the question asked by op and your suggestion are orthogonal imo :)
