I don't know.  All I know is that GNOME3 only worked for me in fallback mode,
and then one day, fallback mode disappeared and my desktop stopped working.
I made the switch to XFCE and I am happy with it.  I have no incentive to
switch back just to try your theory.  I do know that I "upgraded" my laptop
from wheezy to jessie a couple of weeks ago.  It was running GNOME prior to
the upgrade.  After the upgrade, I got the infamous "fail whale".  That does
not give me an incentive to try GNOME again.
