Oil pump rotor orientation

I recently finished the assembly of my first 13b and did not think to check the alignment of the oil pump rotor gears until after everything was assembled. I noticed this detail after going through the FSM after double checking my other work. I am not 100% certain that the dots were positioned as close together as possible. Would this be a reason to take everything apart to verify?

Here is a thread I came across where it would appear like it wouldn't be much of a deal? https://www.nopistons.com/rotary-eng...p-q%27s-44170/
Tried searching but it's been pretty hard to find a definitive answer.

Thanks

Shoot! I think I did the same thing! I can’t find an answer. How’s your car running?
