With my Canadian philosophy (since I don't know Fed philosophy like you do), I contend that a strategy to possibly kick with an option for something else is always effective and possible, and therefore legal. The actions of A are based on those of B. I see a similarity between this and the QB option pass if B bites to tackle him.
