Using bad equipment as a constraint on your art is not likely to spark creativity, but instead just give you a worse result. It's like saying you're going to start programming in Cobol instead of Python because it might make you rely more on your creative abilities, or you're going to start running in wooden clogs instead of running shoes, or replace your computer display with a 10" one. If you want to guide creative thinking, put a constraint on the output, not the toolset.
