Of course one could manipulate the valvetrain.....larger cam diameter, offset lifters, change the phasing, relocate the attachment point of the rocker, change the ratio, longer/shorter valve stem, ect. all in a quest to build a better mousetrap.

But, at the end of the day ,if the lift at the valve SEAT does not exceed the spec called for...who cares?
It is a problem. You explained the considerations well. I do care.
