Is it bad practice to add a section view from a detail view or does it matter as long as your design intent is captured?

RE: Making section views from a detail view
This is typically a matter of company policy.... but can sometimes be set by the CAD software in use
Wisely, DASSAULT's "SOLIDWORKS" establishes definitions and makes policy (de facto) by the way that their software works

Some software packages (SIEMENS) specifically discuss section views taken from Detail views (see page 3-32)

It is bad practice to add any view that is not needed to fully undertsand the subject of the drawing.
