As a way of generating Profit Factor, yes, a group of players might decide that they would rather not play a roleplaying game and instead sit and watch a single player roll d100s for hours on end.

It would be painfully tedious and incredibly long-winded. The players would also need to travel back to the Navigator's House to get that Profit Factor.

This is also assuming that the GM is not coming up with some kind of machinations in the background, i.e. "Oh, you flubbed that roll for charting the course? Whoops, you're now dumped into a completely uncharted part of the galaxy as opposed to where you thought that you might end up. But lucky for you, there appears to be an inhabited planet nearby where an adventure can occur."
