 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.
