I've read of too many people having entire cartridges, even entire
bulk ink bottles drain overnight through the park pad. A leaking fill
hole is equivalent to raising the ink feed from 1 to 2 inches,
depending on which cartridge/printer model.

As for it not hurting, this link isn't about leakage, just about
buildup of ink from cleanings over a longer period of time:
