No.

I was saying that a single GiB is probably useless to reserve because your pool has likely already reserved much more than a GiB for its own reasons, so one more isn't going to make that much difference.

For example, on a 5TiB pool, 3.125% would be 156 GiB, so you'd either be reserving 128 GiB already (if you have a version new enough to limit the slop space that way) or the whole 156 GiB (if not), either of which is much more than 1 GiB.
