The advantage of angle supports is that the slope partially supports itself by pressing on the base. Accordingly, you can make them relatively thin, e.g., 10 cm. With a wall, this base is missing. Therefore, you generally have to make the wall somewhat wider, reinforce it, and anchor it well with a foundation in the ground (variant: shuttering blocks). Or you use much larger stones that have a better width-to-height ratio (variant: ashlars). Tilting the wall against the slope also helps but is more suitable for natural stone walls or planting rings; shuttering blocks then look built crooked.There's basically nothing against that. The only question would be whether they hold just as well as, for example, angle supports?
