You are right, that would help the natural flow and reduce unnecessary data that will be propagated by entire #relays. It would allow for natural and organic connections to develop between #federations and make the entire process transaparent to users.
So, just as with most other things, the more user interaction, the better the experience.
But that makes me feel as if the apps that we use also need to catch up, because the suggestions and autocompletion of users when posting is really bad, while #hashtag completion is actually working very well in apps that I have tested.
