Mm, barely any different to 3-cross and with more extreme entry angles to the rim holes.
Another potential issue with crow's foot lacing is the shorter straight-pull spokes are going to run at a different tension, so even when they're producing equal force to the cross spokes they'll still make a different tone when plucked - depends how it's built I guess, but I'd find it a faff to re-true a wheel with spokes on the same side of the wheel not meant to be making the same tone.
