Is it a bad idea to activate lens-corrections in camera, when also use lens-correction in Lightroom?

My EOS has the option to correct known lens-aberration which is activated at the moment.I use Lightroom (5.2) for post-processing, which can also correct lens-aberration.Is it a problem to activate both cam- and Lightroom-correction or is the Lightroom-correction smart enough to recognize that there is nothing (or not so much) too to anymore?Mainly I use raw-format and seldom (but not never) jpeg. I suppose raw doesn’t safe the cam-correction info, so I guess my question is only relevant for jpeg, isn´t it?**Update EXIF:**I was looking to the EXIF und IPTC informations in Lightroom, but no attribute tells me that the cam correct lens-aberrations.**Update Test:**I do a simple test. Post results as a separate answer for better discussion.
