Was it after you drilled the wheel, or just now, that you realized there isn’t a need to do that?
There will also be a challenge in the future to get that ear of the knockoff in a ‘near’ position to use the same hole in the wheel?
Just personal preference and a cleaner look than wrapping the entire spoke IMHO. I indexed the wheel to a pin drive with a mark on each so it goes on the same way every time.
