If it's leaking between the toilet and the floor, you put the wax ring in wrong. If it's leaking between the toilet and the tank, you need to replace the gasket.

Should you seal the gap between your toilet and tile floor with silicone... why or why not?

If the toilet is sitting solid on the floor, you don't need to. I would use latex instead of silicone because if you should ever have to pull the toilet, it would be much easier. One reason not to seal it down would be if the wax ring should ever fail. You could have a lot of damage to the floor before you noticed the leak.
