It doesn't work that way. If you could see the wear arc before pulling the pin, you would see that it is always centered along the chain, not at an angle to it. Wear occurs on the pins due to a force vector directed along the links, as if trying to pull the chain apart. The pin is fixed in place by the outer plates, so the pin always resists the force on the same side. Flip the chain over and the force vector hasn't changed in relation to the pin. It will still wear on the same surface.
If you could figure out a way to rotate the pins, you could get more wear. Perhaps a pin-orientation modification to the ShelBroCo procedure is the way to go on that.
