Why? There's no reason or logic in what you just said.

Thanks, Rick |
Definitely not. If you leave headroom, both people using the material, as well as broadcasters and others have the option to compress/limit or not. That way you give them a little bit more control (and maybe better sound in the end result).
That said, I have no idea what's normal in that branch of the industry, but I'm sure someone will chime in.
