 Apart from rendering it useless.  
Not at all.  Check out the code from delete_frame_internal() in frame.c:

  if (!force && !allow_deletion_of_last_visible_frame &&
      !other_visible_frames_internal (f, called_from_delete_device))
    error ("Attempt to delete the sole visible or iconified frame");

If `force' (the second argument to the function) is t, then we will
never get the error, and will call `save-buffers-kill-emacs.
