The main reason I see adding a little collective as being a bad idea is the risk of ground resonance (rigid multi bladed rotors), excessive flapping (hinged two bladed rotors) and blade sailing in both.

But then again, isn't it the case (pitch with RRPM going down) at the end of a full, engine off auto ?
