HEY, get real here:
1. does it slow down your scales?
2. does it cause blips?
3. does it crack any notes?
4. is it causing muscle tension resulting in pain?
If the answer to all of these is no, THEN WHO CARES? (to put it very politely).
It's just like all the talk on the shape of the half hole and lifting the index for high G, or "German" fingering to trill B-C# or dawg-knows-what.... provided it helps legato and doesn't affect tuning or tone quality, GIVE ME A BREAK ALREADY!
.... but then I'm not a pro....
