I'm sorry, but you are not correct. On shafts with this issue, if placed in fixtures outside the engine and then turned while a dial indicator tracks them at the bearing end, the run out can be substantial, to the tune of over 0.010 inches. This is in the shaft itself, with nothing else involved. Over time, the repeated wobble in an assembled engine can reek havoc on the IMS bearing.
