Reason for the mod is you can dump the water from the toilet and not have it try t fill it back up. By not having water in the toilet you can get a good scrubbing of the ball and seal.
Be sure to use automotive gasket maker on the threads and let it set for several hours before turning water back on. Don't over tighten as they are plastic threads.

I was thinking about this last month. Your connections even look straighter with the ball valve. Good tip.
