Actually I think this move would be more likely to promote chute-killing than deter it. As mentioned above, these old-fashioned chutes were barely controllable at the best of times, and excessive pulling was more likely to cause air to spill than control direction - apart from straight down a la Roman candle. But give the opposite side a reason to attack, like arming the pilot with a pistol, and they will attack, just to prove a point.
