The short answer is 'No'. The warning is neither Mute nor Moot... (Wow! The conversations that we generate here can be very interesting!)
The previous links with the trunnion bearings (which were hardened steel) could stand up to anything. Some feel that if 'Tight' is good, 'Tighter' is better. And a few believe that 'Killer, Ridiculous Tight' is better still. This was not a concern with the trunnion bearings.
Mostly installers got used to this and some were crushing the aluminum spacers. This is just 1 reason we quickly switched to the current stainless steel version. The stainless steel spacers will take much more pressure than the aluminum. And plenty more than is necessary for a safe install. But still not the unlimited force as did the trunnion bearings. So, we left the 'Warning' about overtightening in the instructions.
