It's a bit... uncommon; but depending on what you want to do, it may indeed give
you what you want.

Typically, you'll use a much different finish, such as:

    finish { diffuse 0.7 specular 0.5 ambient 0.1 }

or something like that; in case of radiosity scenes, you'll virtually always use
ambient 0.

Note that you can define a default finish in your scene, using:

    default {
       finish { diffuse 0.7 specular 0.2 ambient 0.0 }
    }

(for instance) at scene level, before defining your objects.
