Years ago Tommy Naccarato had a similar thread. At the time, I said not. Not even sure it worked back then in the days of lesser carry. Yes, scary. But the angled fairway with a safe way around still makes more sense to me than any sort of forced carry.
That is more true, especially if not natural (i.e., Cypress 16, which does have a safer way) but specifically built. I sure wouldn't go out of my way to build an artificial one, but might accept it on a sandy site where it occurred naturally.
I think even Tillie called it one of his pet ideas, implying he knew it was out of the norm (well, he had to, I guess) Yeah, he is famous, yeah he is great, but it doesn't mean that every pet idea he had was great. Maybe worth restoring, but that is about it.
