It works both ways, the other problem with "take as much as you want" is that it makes it more difficult to call people on not taking enough time off.
You may not think you need a vacation, but others may feel your work is getting sloppier and you're more easily irritated. Most human beings are usually the last to notice these things about themselves.

For example, I'm working on a website on the side which requires both more administrative work and more product/creative work than my day job. My day job is in marketing, and the more time I take off the more time I'm not running performance marketing campaigns that generate revenue every day. I think vacation is very specific to job function in many cases -- in one I would definitely reach burn out and in another I wouldn't. In creative work, like if you're a graphic designer, I can imagine not taking a break would have greater repercussions on the creative process than in my job.
