If your parts slide in no problem then you don't need to do the procedure....
yea this is the most reasonable explaination.
the shalf is supposed to grab the inside of the bearing, not spin within it. so again polishing the shaft wont benefit you unless for some reason the bearing isnt sliding onto the shaft with ease. polishing it will in most cases make the bearing easier to remove from the shaft.
if it fits good leave it alone. because if you polish too much or will a abrasive material, you will reduce the diameter of the shalf and cause a space inbetween the shaft and bearing. worst case senario
