No, your line is much worse.
Compare how much info this guy has about the strength of your hand vs how much you know about his.

Fine, he has more info about my hand and I know less about his. How does c/c, c/f improve this?
(1) If Villain is drawing, he gets infinite odds to hit (though I guess if my plan is to c/f any river, this doesn't matter?)
(2) If Villain is ahead, I put money in on the turn with the sole intention of folding the river if i don't catch my 2 outer (bad).
(3) If Villain is behind but for some reason decides to read my turn & river checks as weakness (which of course would be crazy to do), I call the turn with the sole intention of folding the river.
(4) I have no additional information about his hand, and now he perceives my hand to be weak. This just compounds the problem.
With this line I let Villain off the hook with drawing hands, and I let him bet me out with hands that I'm ahead of, but instead of just folding to a bet on the turn I'm willing to add a little to the pot before folding on the river? Doesn't make sense to me.
I'm not saying 1/3 pot is a good turn bet. I agree it sucks. But I don't think c/c, c/f is better.
