I figure, if it makes you happy, go for it. Given the MTBF for flash memory on these devices, you won't over write to it in the time period you'll keep your phone anyway.

Just remember, just because it's written on a public forum doesn't necessarily mean it's true based on factual information. In the 1300's the earth was flat too.

I never do a second flash, however, I'm not saying my method is gospel, merely choice!
