Fair enough! There's more than one way to skin a cat. This way was easier for me, and has additional benefits as described.
The only thing I would worry about then are events which have low probability but potentially very high "weight" in whatever measure of risk you are using. Sometimes the weight can be so large that your MC estimates seem to converging, and then the addition of a single trajectory completely blows up your variance. These are related to the "black swan" events people sometimes talk about. I don't think this is a problem in your model.
Thanks again for ansnwering.
