No, it’s perfectly sensible, if you want (need) to make it visually explicit 
that there are two voices at the same time — otherwise, how would the reader 
know?

Consider, for example, the following related snippet:

\version "2.19.15"
\score {
  \new Staff <<
    \time 4/2
    { d''2 c''1. }  \\
    \new Voice { b'2 c''1. }
  >>
}

The reason this output makes sense is the same reason there are two stacked 
augmentation dots in your rest example.

Hope this helps!
Kieren.
