One way vs. Two Way Connect Columns

We have run into a problem where we have maxed out our connect columns limits on quite a few boards. One thing we realized is all of our connections are two way connections for M:1 boards.

The question is, if we make our connections one way, instead of bi-directional, would it elevate the connection limit. Basically saying that if we were to have data just pushing to the M:1 boards and no connection back, does that work?

I am inclined to say no, but I figured I would throw it to the group for feedback.

Basic Plan: You can connect 1 board.
Standard Plan: You can connect up to 5 boards.
Pro Plan: You can connect up to 20 boards.
Enterprise Plan: You can connect up to 60 boards.
