Rooting attached tomato suckers/stems

Hello,
I have been, with great success, training my tomato plants as a single stem up a rope.

I am going to continue with my single main stem approach. But I have considered allowing one or two low suckers to grow a bit and then bend/bury them into the ground so that they provide the plant with more root structure...provide additional stability, nutrients, and moisture to the plant.

Have any of you tried this and, if so, what was the result? More/less production?

Thanks.
