It might probably simplify things for third-party parsers. Not for
org-element. The "^* " vs "^ * " is distinguished without much efforts
on Org side because of hierarchical matching (headlines have higher
priority over lists). Moreover Org is trying to be as back-compatible as
possible, so minor simplification is not sufficient to advocate changing
Org syntax.
Best,
