It's not the bolt, but the wheel, spindle, hub, etc. that flexes ever so slightly under hard loads. Metal, tho it seems to be rigid, actually flexes under stress. Resulting deflection is strain.

Again, the point is to consider the benefit/cost of grinding the bolt. Cost to grind is at most 10 mins on your back with a dremel. The cost of damaging your wheels is..well, much worse. Grind out more than "1 coin" of clearance.
Or don't grind it. Then when you attend your first track day, wonder what that scraping sound is when you take corners aggressively.
