Agree, it's easier to give the ball to

a Lindsay Allen or an Olivia Miles and just be done with it, but the job could be adequately done with a group of good ball handlers. And the team might be better overall for it. I also agree it invites a pressure defense, which also must be considered. There's a reason most teams want a traditional point guard, as you say. It's easier. But again, as individual players improve all around play and get bigger, I can also see teams, like some men's teams and the NBA, preferring to do without the traditional point guard.

As I look this over, I'm more or less just agreeing with you without adding anything new, which, I guess, is OK also.
