If you are publishing content types via the managed metadata service, you either have to have the Document ID feature turned on at both publisher and consumer sites, or you have to have it turned off at both.
So in reality, if you want to use document IDs anywhere, you’ll probably end up with them everywhere. If for example you have a records centre, and you want to send documents to the records centre from a team site that shares content types with the records centre, you will have to enable document IDs on your team site.
Not a major problem, but certainly something to be aware of, as some user education clearly will be needed.
