Pursuing both eb1a and eb5 simultaneously

I am indian national eb2 pd June 2016 .

I am considering pursuing both eb5 and eb1a simultaneously. As eb1a is not certain, I would like to have eb5 has backup . I dont like current situation of h1b visa appointments and hinderence to travel. My thought process is apply eb5 now before Sept would give me EAD+AP to travel and I dont have to rely on h1b stamping. Get pressure of timeline and can give multiple attempts at eb1a, which ever path gets me pass finish line fastest . Any pitfalls in this thinking?
