mpd rc.d start-up output

Is all verbose output from rc.d scripts sent to /dev/null as standard?  If this is the case shouldn't this be the better?

 case "$1" in
   start)
     stat_busy "Starting Music Player Daemon"
-    [ -z "$PID" ] && /usr/bin/mpd /etc/mpd.conf
+    [ -z "$PID" ] && /usr/bin/mpd /etc/mpd.conf &> /dev/null
     if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then
       stat_fail
     else
