You end up with nothing but a "packaged" assembly, where everything is just floating in space, not constrained to anything.  I would strongly advise against it.  For one thing, Mechanism will NOT work, or any of the other things you can do with a properly constrained assembly.

You are comparing apples and oranges (Creo and NX).

NX can handle the moved components much better than Creo can.

We had pre-NX and early NX users you never mated their assembly components and it was not a problem. Creo does not like unmated components.
