It's an interesting idea however I must say that when the terran does a Firebat drop, it pretty much counter pretty badly the toss all in: it just burns out all the probes, photon overcharge won't change much as there are two bases to defend and if the terran has nothing to burn, he will just go for pylons (supply block) and eventually he nexus until the photon overcharge runs out. At that point the protoss can go back at home (delaying the push) or push anyways, the terran can defend by pulling out the scvs and using hellbats as they do pretty well against Immortals (especially after the SCVs have killed the shield), moreover the terran is still mining as he has mules.
So with good multi task and vision, the terran can pull it off pretty well.

...What we've essentially seen since the release of Heart of the Swarm is that neither Protoss nor Terran players can open as greedily as they did in Wings of Liberty...

I'm sorry what? The most common PvT opener atm is MSC expand, where you plant the Nexus at 4.00~ which is a good 30 sec earlier than your average zealot stalker expand from WoL. After that, to be 100% safe against everything, you need a Robotics facility and a Forge (for cannon, but you use it for upgrades too!). If anything, Protoss play have become more greedy. Standard in PvT was adding 2 gates after nexus, now you don't really need to do that since we got MSC that will hold anything until medivacs.
