Would it be bad to turn around a gun patch on a cleaning rod and reuse it?

Just something I was always wondering about. When you run a patch through a barrel, one side gets real dirty. Is there anything bad about just turning it around and reusing the other side?
 
Patches are cheap.

My garbage can is at the end of the bench where the rod comes out. Pull off the patch, drop it in the can.

The last bag of patches I bought was a 1000 pack three years ago. Still using it..

Started out just using one side. Then I was around a bench rest shooter that broke several world records and seen him flipping the patches over so I figured if he was doing it I should too. That was 30 years ago!!!
