The AD of RIP is 120 by default but this can be changed?

I know for prevent a router from RIP propagating RIP information via an interface we can use the command passive-interface. But what happen if instead of passive-interface I use the AD of 255? because 255 we have not traffic at all right?

If the administrative distance is 255, the router does not believe the source of that route and does not install the route in the routing table.

Stretch did a piece on this with OSPF.
