This is something the international investigating team would be aware of and if the search was in their control, it may have been applied sooner or, it has already been considered and we don't know because all communication is through the Malaysian government.
As an aside, the report of the plane flying to the west, which is now being disputed, also includes the fact that the Malaysian military radar, which supposedly tracked the plane, didn't pick up the object (plane?) until 2:15am and tracked it until 2:41 am. It's not like they tracked it from the missing point until it was lost.
