Ya know if they did something as reported it makes more sense to nick the hole for the vale stem. A big time Harvick fan here said that notching the rim could lead to a wheel failure and I did have a good friend injured when a rim burst while he was inflating it but the pressure he was using was excessive.

I tend to agree with your take here, although .003 is not much. Seems like the rubber would flex enough to seal a groove that small anyway.
