Bedding is kind of personal preference.

Sometimes if my brakes develop a noise then I'll go do a bedding procedure again and it'll go back to smooth operation. Usually no issues.
Correct -- usually no need to do it this way. But I'd much rather perform this method rather than the standard two man procedure or any of the pressure/vacuum options. Very easy to do with one person, but as always (and unlike with a pressure bleeder bottle) you will need to refill the reservoir after the INPA does its thing on EACH corner. It flushes quite a bit of fluid through the system during this process.

And +1 on the bedding. If it means anything, I always go through the bedding ordeal whenever changing pads or rotors.
