A quick google search says it sometimes happens to powerlifters.
I've had a broken blood vessel in an eye once. Wasn't from some particular occasion I remembered, I just noticed it when I woke up in the morning. Healed in no time, didn't hurt and didn't affect my eyesight. Though I'm not a doctor, my gut says that if it hurts or affects your sight, you should seek medical care.

So 3 weeks of extreme CNS overloading :
The negative : My eye looks like this (Note : photo is not for sensitive viewers, you were warned)
The positive :
New PR squat (250kg) and Deadlift (2*2*290kg, could have made 3 reps but didnt chalk enough)
Those smelling ammonium salts are an immediate trigger for nosebleeds tho, jesus christ

I'd say it depends. If you don't get injured with heavy weights and like them I'd say keep doing them as long as you feel stable and safe. But if you do get hurt, I'd regress to a lower weight or do other exercises. For example my shoulders do not agree with the bench press so I just do push ups for chest. Not as cool and fun, but still okay.
Strength is never a weakness. But indeed, past a certain point, the actual advantages are low compared to the potential injuries from silly shit you can have.
Since my deadlift is much better then my squat, it doesnt tax anything to the ragged edge. However, passing out with 247.5kg on your back and 1 or no spotters, and you will sit in a wheelchair for at least a year

Excercise in general, regardless of what kind, should be applauded and persuaded.
Pushing yourself very far in that excercise is a choise.

If you have a thin build and are long, its awkward cause you never get compression anywhere of two bodyparts. However, if you get past that point, its pretty good when done correctly
That last isnt a dig at you, dont worry, its a dig at dudebro's who feel obliged to go tell people how they should do stuff, while beeing completely wrong. Since i've had considerable rotatorcuff trauma cause of it, i wont stop repeating it
