Future proofing your book is just plain smart. Why create a vanilla ePub2 when you can add a little different markup which allows your books to take advantage of the advances in ePub3 - and still be read on both ePub2 and 3 devices/apps?
Because if you do more to your ePub to make it even more ePub 3 than the publishers are doing now, you very well could end up with an ePub that won't work well with older versions of ADE. A lot of Readers still in use have older versions ADE and they very well may not handle these sorts of things such as trying to make footnotes into popup footnotes.
