Embedded profiles in PDF

In RWCM 2nd Edition, on page 425, 3rd paragraph, the authors write : "to
minimize file size, each object references its source profile instead of
having the profile embedded in the object".

I was wondering how could that be? So I called the friendly folks at Adobe
InDesign tech support and they told me that, when exporting to PDF from
InDesign CS, every instance of the image profile gets included in the PDF.
Totally contradicting the discussion presented by the authors?

I have not had a chance to extensively study the latest PDF standard but I
know it's possible to peek inside a PDF with a text editor and fish for all
kinds of information, provided one knows how to decode the data.
