There's a big difference between what I'd do If I had this problem while touring outer Mongolia, and what I'd do at home or elsewhere where a replacement rim was available.
The difference between a brilliant idea, and utter nonsense is often the context. Just because something might work, at least for a while, doesn't make it an intelligent decision when there are other better option.
