it is certainly highly situational.

for another example similar to your own consider this archvile in a cage high up a wall on tnt map15. if you are outside autoaim range, you can't hit it, but archviles will not attack you outside of a certain distance which happens to be the same as the autoaim range. so with freelook, i can stand outside out attack range and kill the monster completely risk-free, but with autoaim i must step into range and risk being attacked to defeat it.

however i can't see the harm in using freelook to shoot things that autoaim could have targeted itself. it's when you start hitting things that are outside of autoaim range that it becomes questionable.
