That's probably not a significant risk, but if you're trying to remove air from the system by sucking it out, (as when refilling a drained system) the bubbles make it impossible to tell if/when you've succeeded.
Blowing works better for that, though there is allegedly a risk of everting seals in the master cylinder, and there's a real risk of pushing muck into it.
I've used as much pressure as I can generate with a syringe, which creates a noticable upwelling and turbulence in the master cylinder, and so far havn't experienced the first problem.
I cycle maybe 20 mls of fluid in-out a few times first to stir up and remove muck in the calipers/wheel cylinders/piping.
There are so many posts I could make right now that people would laugh over.
Oooo....SCARY!
