using "group" stereo with arc for wider channels

I saw a video where someone used a 300's in a stereo set up along side an arc system (subs and rears) and mentioned it was okay and did provide more wider channels.  Has others tried this?  Does it "work" as a work around? I assume you'll lose some precision from the arc but would you gain wider channels?

Anything grouped with the Arc is going to be delayed when playing TV sources, causing a noticeable echo when in the same room.

This delay will create confusion and a sense of lost audio focus for most viewers, but a few might interpret this as watching the TV in a much larger space -- hence the claim of “wider channels”. It comes down to personal preference. I would not appreciate this approach.
