If it's done with a purpose, why not?

Ah, ok. That is not so uncommon. It can be a relatively cheap way to improve performance. Some sets of cams have different lift and duration from each other. Some judicious mixing and matching can shift the torque peak a bit.
It also seems like an easy way to make things worse.
