If the system is going to fail somewhere else I'd much rather it be during a static test than later on the road.

If you can't stand on it, what happens in an emergency brake situation?
Make sure you bench bleed it before install.
I see your points and they are very valid. I personally had a experience when I bled a system. I used the gorilla tactic repeatably and I damaged the master cylinder seal. The master cylinder (car) did have over 200,000 miles on it though.
