Default Virtara Piston Question

There are some sharp points on my Vitara Pistons where the valve reliefs are. They are on the outer edge of the piston. Would grinding these smooth be an issue? I would like to reduce sharp edges to prevent detonation. Being on the outer edge of the piston would this cause any issues?
Thanks for any help...

I notices those edges too, I just left them alone like many others. I have seen a few threads where ppl filed them down but I would be carefull.

Thanks for the reply. I'm just trying to get everything perfect so I don't have to pull the motor apart in the future. Has anyone on here filed them down?
