I think you might be overestimating the significance of duplicating 3's. Your opponent can still hit and cover with 63, 31, and the joker 33. With 43, your opponent can go for the attack with 8/5 6/2* because you've left yourself vulnerable with your "wild" slotting-while-split play. Finally, the 4pt isn't as valuable as the 5pt, so the gain from slotting the 4pt isn't as large as the gain from slotting the 5pt. If we could illegally play 24/23 6/5 instead of 24/23 6/4, then 24/23 6/5 might be preferable despite the lack of duplication.
