I think it is fine, because no matter the frequency of training in the week all the lifting days are based on same structure/methodology. Combining a push/pull/squat one week with full body the next is a little too much variance for me. If you want to do 3 lifting days a week one week, and two the next, just keep alternating days with the Stronglifts:

Say

Week 1
A,B

Week 2
A,B,A

and so on. You only have two seperate workouts to track in this format, rather than 5 in your original idea, so it makes progression much simpler and easier to track.
