Can you give me some insight as to what a potental problem might be so I can do some testing as well?
I think he means this:

If you are performing manual TMA with a contact that has been detected by both the sphere and TA, the LOB the TA generates may be warped because it has drifted so far down that the direction the sound is striking the sensor from is different.

So, if this is correct, don't stream your TA the whole way unless you need to (dipping it under a layer). I never do anywho.
