Hi Toc,
Firstly..it is not a dumb question..(if you never ask, you never know!)
Secondly...a collimation free Newtonian?..where the fun in that?..Seriously though..the design of most newtonian's allow for some movement in the optics for things like temperature variances, vibrations in transit, etc. I check my 10" dob prior to viewing and adjust when it needs it..after all...you travel all that way for a clear sky...fine tuning the optics is also worth the effort.
