Setting up cross brake levers to pull instead of push?

I set up a pair of cross levers as the only brake levers on my bike. I know that when you run these levers in line they push the housing to brake. I ended up installing the cable so the levers pull the cable to brake. I tried it the other way first but this seemed to give me more leverage on the brakes (cantilevers). Is there anything wrong with running the cables this way so they are pulling the cable instead of pushing the housing? I couldn't find much info on the interwebs about installing just cross levers
