As far as such feeding causing problems downstream, I simply do not find
that that to be true. The colonies are invariably healthier and stronger

By problems downstream I suspect Dee may be thinking rather longer term; in
generations of queens rather than of workers. By supplementary feeding you
are doing nothing to de-select those that can't cope unaided with the local
environment.
