Erm.. actually I apply negative gain - a cut.

Doesn't matter, you can still get clipping with lossy files even if you apply a negative gain. Thats why the replaygain reference levels are so low, you need to cut off quite a few db to be sure theres no clipping due to rounding errors and quantization artifacts. Basically, if you raise the replygain reference level, you'll get more clipping, although IME its usually not noticeable.

Then you won't get clipping, but your tracks won't also play at exactly the same volume, since each will be randomly lowered a few dB.

No nothing stupid, just something audio purists seem to care about. If you don't notice a problem, don't worry about it.
