They dramatically increase print times and increase blemishes. It's such a small surface area, that it just ends up creating blobs and shakes the printer.
If you’re finding you’re printer is shaking too much, consider adjusting the acceleration/jerk settings
it’ll slow prints down- the maximum axcel/jerk will limit the top speed for the very short moves, longer moves remain mostly unaffected- but it will improve print quality.
I probably should adjust the acceleration settings. In this instance, Im just trying to optimize the print to cut down on print time. There's about 15 or so of these needlessly small sections per layer, so culling them would cut down the print time a bit.
