confusion about migrating to incremental repair

Hi,

I am running a cluster with 2.2.4. I have some table on LCS and plan to use
incremental repair. I read the post at
http://www.datastax.com/dev/blog/anticompaction-in-cassandra-2-1 and am a
little confused.

especially:
"This means that *once you do an incremental repair you will have to
continue doing them* (there are ways to clear out the repair-state to
revert this, more about that later). Otherwise you will not run leveled
compaction, just size tiered."

Does this mean once I start doing inc repair, I have to always run inc
repair to keep using LCS? What about full repair once a week or month? Is
that still recommended? Will it stop LCS?
