It maximises your options on mix-down. The HF off-axis response isn't as good as an excellent SDC, but IMO that's offset by the flexibility of the setup:
You'll essentially have the option to "aim" the stereo image wherever you like, although 45-degree steps (XY with any pair, M/S in-between) will be the most straightforward.
Bonus: you'll still be able to tweak the polar patterns in post.
