One of these things is not like the other.
Your idea seems to be a bit too greedy to be good for the Bitcoin network.
But hey, maybe it could be used as a tool to harden Bitcoin wallets. Who knows?
It's all about how you wield the tool.

Sorry which thing is not like the other? If you mean Bitcoin script and Miniscript I didn't say they are the same, hence the use of different names for them.
There are already scripts in the wild that sweep deposits to addresses generated with guessable private keys, its a fascinating area of research :)
