My first thoughts were negative toward it, but thinking outside the box, this could be a great idea.
If it makes the game more fun (and success is more fun than futility), then why not?
If you think about it, is it any different than coach pitch? The purpose of coach pitch is to postpone one of the most difficult parts of the game so that young players can learn quicker about other aspects of the game. In other words, coach pitch unlocks the door to critical parts of the game that otherwise could not be easily experienced. Perhaps ball-rolling at 6U does the same thing.
