As far as I know, or have ever heard, NO.
The best way to set it is to start right at the socket end of the neck, rotate slowly a full circle, then repeat at 1/4" intervals away from the socket until you find it. There are 2 places where the ion trap will bring a picture: one near the socket, the other near the yoke. You want the one nearest the socket.
The object is to get the brightest picture, then correct any shadows with the centering rings. If you have it at the brightest picture, that's correct and should not cause any phosphor spot.

Just curious.
