Do you grease BB30 shell before installing new bearings?

I'm about to replace my BB30 bearings with some hybrid ceramics, and I've seen a couple web sites recommend applying a thin layer of grease to the shell. It seems that would increase the likelihood of creaking, but if I don't, will the steel races bind to the aluminum shell?
