My variation of this is to tie a small dropper loop, about the size of a dime, in my main 36" or so leader, and about 6 inches below the swivel. My droppers are tied on leaders about 8 inches long, with a surgeons loop at the end. I add or remove the droppers with a loop to loop connection, and the small dropper loop on the mnain leader does not bother me casting when I have no teaser on.

I had problems with two leaders/lines off the main swivel after I switch over to fireline. Sometimes they twist or wrap, and I think the fireline was "cutting" the dropper leader off on a fish, or even just casting with the snap of the line. Have not had any problems since using the dropper loop.
