Curtis,

Both code will actually prevent pages with multiple connections being 
crawled multiple times, or even recursive publishing if one page is 
connected to another, and another is connected to one.  It is highly 
recommended to have either code in place.

Should you require additional assistance, I can help here or you can reach 
out to OpenText Consulting Services.

Best regards,

-Jian
