No doubt they are, shall we say, old school. Nevertheless, in smaller centres one may be forced to deal with a printer like this. The root of my question was not a practical matter, however, rather a technical inquiry: is it a technically sound approach from a colour management perspective to profile a printer's contract proofer for both proofing and separations for press, assuming the printer can match their own proof?
