If I understood the topic correctly it is not about any problem. It's about experiences with a different player-lane-grouping and how it could fit the creep per lane ratio better.
I'm not sure how a 1-2-2 split would affect the game, although if you want to try it I would recommend playing until the 5th minute in standard 1-3-1 and then switching to a 1-2-2 with all "2-players" having a hull (or demolisher). That makes mid way safer against coordinated attacks (especially by demolisher combos) and the 2 side lane players can pressure the tower way more efficient. (~1k hp against stun+tower is not enough to be offensive, with 2k+ it's no problem.)
Most probably the opponents will react with a 1-2-2 split themselves (otherwise they might lose their tower).
