Technically, it shouldn't break anything, but that doesn't mean you
should be haphazard with the way you use GRDDL profiles on your pages.

In other words - it's frowned upon, but that's not going to stop people
from being sloppy.

You should only put a GRDDL profile on a page that actually contains
GRDDL metadata.

That depends on which use-case you have in mind. The better question to
ask is "Do you expect there to be GRDDL transform engines visiting the
page that don't understand RDF XML or RDFa?". If the answer to that
question is "Yes", then you will want to make the HTML GRDDL-able.
