What are the implications of profile only zaps? Besides the extra steps needed to complete a Zap, this cripples the entire Zap experience because Damus users that choose to profile Zap will not have those Zaps counted towards the individual note's tally. The value of a note will be perceived less than it's true value. The note creator will no longer be able to have a live indicator of which of their pieces of content is valued most by their followers. Zaps are a form of feedback and this is now being robbed from all users on Nostr. We can all still Zap and the value is still there and received, but the feedback functionality of Zaps is now hindered.

It's still tallied towards the note, Damus just doesn't show it.

How? Zap isn't performing the Zap on the note.

The note id is passed on to the profile view and added as a tag. So on the network, it's still a note zap. Damus just doesn't show it as such.
