This option doesn't feel very worth it. Also, considering the fact that Strong-Backed Labour is somewhat tedious to grind, the actual EPA is pretty bad.
If you do end up playing it, it's definitely better to fail the check using Woesel. Even though you lose out on potential wines, you save on Docks favours. The Making Waves gain is the same, which is the primary benefit. It's usually better to spend Docks favours at Jericho, for better EPA + Scrip. Best case-scenario, you spend 2.5E + 1 Docks favour for 12cp Making Waves. Not very appealing.
Realistically, if you're still are using this lodging lategame, it's likely just to play 'The next victim?' for Rev/Crim favours.
