 > I'm not sure I would be using is_page() as a conditional in this manner?
 Tending to wonder whether I would use it at all in BP terms, yes in other
 WP scenarios perhaps.

 I tend to use conditionals quite a lot throughout my themes, probably
 indicating that I need to break my templates into parts a little bit more
 than I already do. I use the Theme My Login plugin and use {{{is_page}}}
 in my theme's header.php file to identify when a user is on what I call an
 entry page (register, login, reset password etc). If the current page is
 an entry page I don't output the header and footer navbars - so I'm just
 using is_page to remove the clutter from the page. Of course a better way
 of doing it would be to use template parts - which I'm thinking of doing
 going forward. Less conditionals will make everything easier to read too.
