No, because you only lost the spell because you used spellstrike: you could have just missed with the strike and cast the spell. You didn't gain anything, especially if you cast a save spell as whenever you managed to hit would have been using he exact same number

Agreed, it's a boost over using spellstrike currently. Assuming that you will be using spellstrike either way, it is more efficient. As it currently stands, though, spellstrike doesn't actually provide you any real benefits.

Basically, my point was not that it was more efficient than just casting the spell, but that it was more efficient than the current spellstrike.

uh, no. spending your next turn to do something you failed to do last turn is the exact opposite of an efficiency boost.

It is an efficiency boost compared to losing the spell, assuming that you want to be attacking with a spell in your weapon as much as possible, which is kinda the point of the magus.

That's a resource efficiency boost, not an action economy boost

It's both, functionally. While it is primarily a resource efficiency boost, it also has the effect of boosting your action economy, because you wouldn't need to spend actions keeping your Spell Strike active, at least until you get the payoff of actually hitting with the spells.
