From Indexing API documentation:
So this might come with the risk of seeing the site you want to boost rather penalized by Google.
This is not a boost, Index != Ranking

The only outcome I can see from this is a) contributing to the rise of spam and b) harming people managing sites and apps for which this API is vital.
