Can I Use A Non-Crusting Bc As A Crumb Coat Under Fondant?

I am wondering if this is OK or not. Somehow I'm thinking that there may be a lot of slipping and sliding if I used a non-crusting BC, but another part of me wonders if it really even matters.

Can someone shed some light on this for me?

TIA!

Crusting BC not necessary under fondant. I have used either without a problem. In fact, using a crusting BC can be harder to get the fondant to "stick" to.
