Given my usual behavior is to check two pages then add !g, where I check two pages and decide I don't need more info, I don't think that's a strong move.

I’m not saying it’s smart, just that I could easily imagine someone chasing the wrong metric or trying to balance revenue against the likelihood that you’ll stop using them. For example, in your scenario that’s still twice as many impressions so unless you make Google tour primary maybe that’s a win.
