I don't think we will ever know the real truth.

It's not that it's a big deal, it's that I can't see how it makes much difference. So far (admittedly on race engines) I have had better luck with running motors as hard as I can once they are in cars. I do one pace lap and that's about it. I just don't see how the rings care much past the first few hundred revolutions. Which took place before you got the car.
There is no question that random other stuff can be found during early ownership of a car.
I confess I am still getting accustomed to the radiator cap on 911's.

The only thing I would be concerned about if it the rings don't seal quick enough. This website (http://www.mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htm) says that it does matter, but like the last post, "I don't think we'll ever know definitively."
