It makes a hello of a lot of sense in the scenario you describe. However, how will this positive effect be negated by data loss due to loss of power? There will be times where power is unexpectedly removed, and I would expect this scenario to be common with our user base. JFFS2 has done an excellent job, at least on my xos, of keeping filesystem integrity after sudden power-offs.
