There are actually several reports of different people catching the "deployment fish", I believe it has to do with the known issue here, where the -- Component count is reported greater than actual count on deployment status UI page
Changesets are useful when you need a history of what was done or if the user in the sandbox does not have access to production. They are also useful when you want to send profile permissions in the deployment along with the changeset.
The IDE will deploy code ad hoc but I do not believe it will migrate profile permissions at the same time. Also, if the user does not have access to the destination org it obviously will not work.
Since its a custom field include the fields as well as profiles also in the changeset to configure permissions .I would recommend all profiles along with this field in one changeset for deployment with permission same as the source org .
