Whatever floats your boat man ! I usually don't brew beer with a gajillion hops, so cleanliness of the pitch is not an issue for me, but I could see how it could be an issue for others.
I also steal from starters when I use non top cropping strains, but I made a choice to choose a strain that can be top cropped as a house strain in order to save on costs and futzing around with starters.
By the way, I saw your username a few times before and I'm wondering if it's a Seinfeld reference
