The idea is that you would be playing along with a track that wasnt "in time" with what you are recording. In reality, minor drift is probably not audibly noticeable but it precludes work that needs to be sample-accurate.
I can see this being a problem if the multiple devices were all input devices, such as the "multiple Soundblasters" mentioned in a previous post, but if there is a single device used for input, and another device that is used strictly for listening, what problems can be caused? I fail to see how it could cause a problem, even if the clock on the monitor audio chain drifts.

The sync is fine, one clock becomes master.
I should clarify. You didn't specify any kind of sync solution, and not only recommended using two devices, but stated that it is the normal way of doing things. Doing so without a sync solution will result in unsynchronized clocks, which as far as I know, is very much not the normal way of doing things.
