No guarantees in plumbing, why plumbers there alway busy. Two connections vs 4.

Your valve can fail also, more places to leak and brass will corrode over time. Also could leak between the clued on PVC slip and brass valve. My SBs got 11 years on them so far easily turn off and on and look like new. To each their own.
