I don't see, why I am not using RAW.So long as you and your players are fine with you not DMing as RAW or RAI then it's fine. For me, I'd find it frustrating that you are breaking a core mechanic of my class. I'd much rather you have an enemy archer or spellcaster hold their action until I pop out. Or have a mounted enemy chase me down. That would be cool. There are other ways of challenging the rogue without breaking the RAW and RAI.
If you use the same stone again and again, advantage is the RAW solution.
Staight from the SRD, last paragraph of the advantage/disadvantage section:
You usually gain advantage or disadvantage through the use of special abilities, actions, or spells. Inspiration can also give a character advantage. The GM can also decide that circumstances influence a roll in one direction or the other and grant advantage or impose disadvantage as a result.
Edit: and my personal guideline is: would a player complain if that tactic is used against them. And if you think about it: every CR 1/4 goblin can hide as a bonus action and has a 1d6+2 ranged attack with a lot of reach. Look at how the first encounter in Lost mines of phandelver goes if all goblins split up and start hidden. It will be the first TPK.
