RE: Camera Shift Spacing

With all this talk of camera spacing (MAOFD, 1;30, weight-shift,
etc.) when using a single camera for stereo, I got to thinking:
wouldn't it be possible to mark your viewfinder (or prism or mirror)
with two parallel lines once you have figured out the proper spacing?
Then all you would have to do is make sure that the nearest object in
the frame doesn't exceed that spacing. It wouldn't matter whether you
were shooting insects (hypostereo) or the Grand Canyon (hyperstereo).
Is this just too simple or am I just crazy?

Thanks for the time,
