Down breathes really well, which is one of the reasons it regulates temperatures really well. Unless you are stormed-in in a high altitude bivy for multiple days, it isn't likely that you'll be wet inside your sleeping bag from condensation, respiration, or transpiration.

Probably not, unless you are normally soaked inside a sleeping bag. I have used bags covered in everything from Dryloft to Pertex to the 0F version of this bag (the Col) and have never really had a problem. Most of the moisture escapes through the stitching, I would guess. But the water resistance is nice to keep dew and frost from penetrating the majority of the bag.
