I think this line is prefectly fine, villain could be on a flush draw / overs and probably calls nothing that you beat.

You may get the odd call from AQ / AK but I doubt it. A lot of the time you are beaten by A6/K6 or some mediocre holding that loves you betting into him that will probably check behind on the river.

If there were hands that beat you that would call a bet then betting is superior to checking. But with a flush draw and over draws out I think checking to induce a bluff is far better especially when there are hands your opponent beats you with that check this river behind you.
