Actually, although I'm flying and RV-10, that's all I use
for defrost.  Behind-panel temps are even in the 90-100F
range in mid winter, when it's 20F outside, so that air back
there can even help keep the windscreen defrosted.  On our
planes the forward heat inlet is by the feet too, which
just adds to the hot air, so it makes it fairly effective.

There's really not much of a downside, at least, from
what I can tell.
