Why not? It's easy and quick and solves all the problems you
mentioned (and then some). Like I said: I'm using this myself all the
time.

No need for paper: just M-w the data and yank into your production
session (which stays up and running all the time). Again, I'm doing
this all the time in my work on Emacs.

You can start from "emacs -Q" and load whatever is needed. You can
make an ad-hoc init file that loads everything you need automatically,
to save manual typing. I'm doing this all the time when the setup is
complicated.

Consider it done.
