Yes. It’s mnemonic and composable whereas your key chord isn’t. It’s fine if you don’t care for it. Each to their own. I’m just explaining the appeal of modal editing

Interesting that you use the word "chord", because guitarists and piano players have been remembering chords forever based on the position of their hands, not based on some letters and numbers. Your version isn't more easily memorized, it's just different.
