Being able to disembark 12" if needed can definitely come in handy. I've thought about something like this for my Raven Guard too, throwing Assault Marines in a LR or something. It's never really done, but it's hardly something your opponent will suspect. The only real danger is that the chances are you're guaranteeing each of those models will eventually take a S4 hit when that Raider explodes, which is almost assured. However, the risk is probably equal to just letting them fly around on their own.
Your biggest concern might simply be that, even with the RRD, FA slots can be better filled.

Interesting idea. I don't know that I'd bother with the Carbine/Racks combo... with only 5 scourges, warriors are still putting out more shots (albeit at 12" instead of 18"). Would have to math out a unit full of splinter cannons, but I wonder what would be more points efficient.
It's certainly a way to keep them alive a bit longer - and while the threat of exploding boats is ever-present, I've noticed a distinct lessening of that effect lately. Between so many people gearing to HP strip vehicles rather than flat-out kill, *and* exploding being far less common, even my Wyches were having much better luck the last time I pulled them out.
So that's a thing.
At least my old models have more... subdued... wings, and I can actually place them in BtB without having issues. HA! HA I say to your fancy new toys that aren't from the 80's!!
