I'd quess the reasoning is that if you run all those AMs first then you'll have a very solid foundation, which translates into accepting and expressing the suggestions given in SM in a short amount of time. When you start expressing the behaviors, you start consciously expecting them from yourself, at which point it becomes self-regenerating and all that snowflake theory jazz.
Contrasted with running SM directly with a less-than-great foundation (e.g. lots of fear), you might be too stiffled/needy/whatever to start expressing the suggested behaviors and there would never be a chance of them becoming the "new you". Of course you'd have a head start when you come back to it the next time. You'd also be more likely to experience more resistance (feeling bad), but as I understood the "flakes" are still piling up, so it shouldn't matter too much.
And then there's the other point of keeping the momentum going. Keeping your subconscious focused on that one goal for a long stretch of time and not "wasting time" on switching direction. No idea if this is a big issue or not.
Personally, I don't want to wait many years before reaching "the end result". Besides boring, who knows what'll happen in 3 years - maybe my dick will fall of. I've also thought that SM/WM will push me a little into unknown territory and then the following round of AM has some new challenged to work with. Idk, if this is of any real benefit of not.
EDIT: I have to say, though, 6 months feels like a really long time when you're not seeing any results.. so I'm pretty sure I'd use the word "wasted" anyway, because it'd feel like it. And it would be if the user was discouraged enough by the experience to not use it anymore (hola CM :p ).
