Lead isn't coming all the way up, they are moving from the endline to about 3 feet above it on the sideline. They will get the same look trail would get from coming over without leaving the entire other half of the court uncovered. Plus you have the look at OOB now without needing help. Also a pass out of the trap doesn't require a 20 foot adjustment by trail, but means lead turning the corner and moving about 6 feet.

But the Lead may not have a very good look from one-step above the endline.
In order to trap, a defender probably has sealed of the sideline, that the Lead is watching, and the defender's back will be toward the Lead. Lead will be unable to see through the defender(s) and since we have moved Trail away and less able to see any illegal contact. We have nobody on ball.
Even in a stall machanic, the Trail is advised to follow the ball away from his sideline.
