The point of bringing things out of line is to create motion. Everyone can putt the ball quite straight, yet it wouldn't produce the power needed to play good golf.
With the back of the wrist inline with the wrist joint, one is only capable of producing about 45 degrees of motion without changing the configuration of the fingers. So whichever way you look at this, either you have an ineffective amount of motion or you have introduced a compensation.
A much better idea is to grip it in a way that allows one to wrap the fingers around the club and stay wrapped during motion; while also enabling the amount of motion needed.
