I've actually seen diagrams showing the circulation of grease between the bearings and the hub.
I have also seen manuals that indicate that the hub should be packed. Whether these instructions are applicable to all applications, I don't know.
I just try to follow, as well as I can, whatever the manual says. But, if in doubt, I put a coating in the hub. I doubt that it can do any harm.
