Question Can I trust my mobo / CPU to keep to safe voltages stock (5800X3D)

Sorry if this is too similar to my other post, although it is a bit different.

I have a 5800X3D which is listed as max 1.35v on the cores (SVI2 reading) and I haven't mucked with anything. Asus Strix B550-A w/ AGESA 1207 bios, Asus version 2806 as per CPU-Z.

I have noticed, usually on idle or low intensity programs, the reported maximum reading for core voltage has managed to reach 1.344v. Usually it hangs around 1.28-1.31v. To my knowledge it's never exceeded the 1.35v that AMD specs it for.

However, being anxious by nature, I worry that it might be getting a bit too close even if it is for only very brief blips - 1.344 is the absolute max I've seen it and that was just the highest the sensor read over a 2 hour period.

Can I trust my mobo / CPU to keep to what the 5800X3D is specced for voltage wise? Probably a dumb question but I'm gonna ask it anyways.

CPU is good for1.5v as long as it's properly cooled. You are well within specs.

Doesn't AMD say it's only safe for 1.35v or am I missing something

No, those are recommended voltages.

huh, you learn something new every day. Every place I read seemed to stipulate a 1.35v hard maximum or it's dangerous to the chip, or more specifically the V-cache. Oh well, I guess there's always a detail I've missed.
