I played on a synthetic reed back in the late 70s and hated it. They may have improved them, but...
the ONLY instance where I think such a thing might be useful is when playing outdoors or when you have to pick up an oboe quickly to cover a part, as in a show. I knew a cabaret/pit orchestra doubler who used one, and he wasn't too bad on it. Tone, though... very marginal.
HOWEVER, like the pros who've already answered you, I would strongly recommend against using them as they do develop bad habits (biting, tension). Bamboo might be less predictable but you're much better with it in the long run.
