It’s closely related to mustard, and mustard’s distinct flavor is from the seeds. So I’d assume that if you leave it long enough for the blooms to seed, they’d taste similar to mustard.

Grew broccoli for the first time this year. The answer is worse, chewier, stringier.

Some plants make some bitter compounds when they go to seed so I would guess not.
