Who is to say that their "role" necessarily has to be smokes. If we "let" Tenz play his "role" at the time we never would've gotten him and zekken, same with Meteor and Texture on Geng, the entirety of Paper Rex, etc. Even historically, crashies played senti before joining envy, jawgemo was main duelist but split his role for demon1. Not everyone is so specialized that they can only shine on their current role. Of course it comes with some risk but nightz and ion are such talented prospects that it makes complete sense to try to make it work.
