Since SS is primarily a "domestic"  contest, such stuff is effective. I 
still
remember things like "K 4 Worked  All Bands" in SS from back in the 70's.

Over the years, I've found that the few stations using creative  phonetics 
actually stand out in a contest, especially if rules permit  working them 
only once regardless of band.  I am far more likely to  remember that I've 
already worked N4-Baked-Potato than I am N4-Bravo-Papa.  And thus I don't 
even need to enter N4BP in my logging software to see if  he's a dupe.
