If a player wants to break away early as soon as his team takes possession or in anticipation of his team taking possession that would make it much more exciting to see long pass attempts. I see no reason how that would effect the flow of the game negatively.
So a player runs off towards the opponent goal. There are now three possibilities. His team doesn't get the ball as expected, his team gets it and launches it to him and defense has to you know, play defense and get back, or his team just chooses hold on to the ball and move it up the field under more control. How is that bad for flow?
