Crown Molding for base

Is Crown molding acceptable for base trim? I did an inspection of a flip for profit. The contractor must have used leftover material to trim out the baseboards with Crown molding.
I told my client,this was not acceptable, since dust and debris will collect in the top and bottom of the trim.

Are you joking? That’s not a defect.
