That should make no difference whatsoever. G33 (or G32) is implicit and is a feed per rev move. It shouldn't matter one bit what other feed mode is previously selected. The interpreter should handle it for that block. In most cases I'm aware of, modality should return the feed mode to it's previous state on the next line, but always better safe than sorry and it's often a good idea (and shouldn't be an error) to define the previous mode in operation (G93/94/95) on the next G1/G2/G3 line.
