Seems like a more efficient choice but be wary (weary?) that some printers will unlock the motors after sitting for X amount of time without any movement or commands, which will require you to home again anyways.
This seems ideal if you're running prints back to back though.
Then if the motors are released the home will activate. No issue there.
Yeah I meant it as more a heads up if someone finds themselves in a scenario like you described where their bed probe is on the fritz and they're hoping to work around that.
Also, this is for Klipper you can change the behavior of your printer to do whatever you want.
