The second one sort of depends on the player. I've had a few players that have made absolutely ridiculous characters but played them very well and it was a good experience.
The first one is a strong no. I've never seen anyone who does a broken meta build do anything beyond ruin everyone's time and complain (or quit) if the DM reins them in at all.
In half the campaigns, the Doctor Farts PC ends up being the MVP because they weren't minmaxed and as a result have much more utility.
Doctor Farts: "I cast Stinking Cloud, again."
Party: sigh
Doctor Farts: ooo! i leveled up and got cloudkill!
