Isn't anything less than .200-.250" valve to wall clearance, cause valve shrouding?

In theory most of the air fuel mix is going to the high speed side of the valve which is heading to the most unshrowded area in the middle of the cylinder, but at low speed, which this engine probably won't see too much of it could shroud a bit.
