your firewall will not blow up if you configure it to an internal address. Checkpoint recommends it to external interface, but I have many clients who have licensed their firewalls to internal address and there hasn't been any problems.

It counts the number of hosts which are behind the external interface to check whether your license is correct. If you have a unlimited license this is not applicable, but you still have to configure the license to your external interface.
