There's no reason that wouldn't work, but it would jack the cost way up, since it would involve machining a couple of custom allen wrenches when actual allen wrenches are so cheap. True, that would save a little weight, but what's the combined weight of a 5 and 6mm allen wrench? I think the trade off in cost to weight savings would be out of whack.
