Why would players practice a technique that involves passing the ball through a hoop not much larger than the ball itself twice for no point advantage when it is easier to dunk or take an easy layup?
No one would be seriously “practicing” this technique. There is already “tussles” under the basket because it’s the highest percent shots on the court, and there is a three-second violation in place specifically so bigs can’t camp out there.
This is a rule because it was made a rule. If the rule was removed, it would have no recognizable impact on the game. But, for that and reason, there’s really no point in changing it.

Just make the ball going up through the basket -1 point.
And then let the other team throw the ball up through your basket to decrease your score. Now you have to defend your net as well as try to make shots on it.
