Speaking purely from a business perspective, Todd just did it wrong. They should have grabbed the kid and the bike and thrown them both off a cliff just to make it look like an accident. If the topography doesn't allow for that then at least make it look like he banged his head on something because he was driving a little out of control. A rock or a railroad tie or something. A gunshot causes extra headaches and scrutiny.
They bury the kid in the desert and nobody finds him for the next 20 years. Not a huge headache. I think it just shows how cold blooded Walt is now and how Jesse still isn't completely callous.
