|p=''>>getting rid of the profession flag has many benefits. I cannot, and have not seen posted, any drawbacks to doing so''

I actually haven't seen any of the benefits you're mentioning. The main benefit you seem to be referencing is that the {{PRel|Set command|PROFESSION flag}} hinders RP, but the arguments there are kind of murky.

For instance, I often mention that I like to program. It's general knowledge in my circle of friends that I'm a programmer, even though it doesn't come up in every conversation. I think that having your PROFESSION flag set is a similar thing - You regularly do things that publicize your abilities as a WM (or whatever), and it's basically public knowledge that you're a WM. Kind of like how people know Hercules is strong even if they don't witness feats of strength themselves.

Remember that you're a hero in Elanthia - You're far and beyond the average person, and your actions tend to be the things of rumor and legend. If you want to indicate that you intentionally keep a low profile, you should actively set your PROFESSION flag off.
