That's up to you !
If your server config is such that there are no leases it can offer 
to devices without Option 82 then I think it will keep quiet. The 
obvious thing to do is try it and see.

On the other hand, you can always setup firewall filters that will 
block direct requests from clients so the server daemon never sees 
them.
