X-ray hazard or hyped up scare?

I have run this set a few times now w/o any problems, but have noticed the FBT gets slightly warm, not TOO hot, but warm to the touch after it's off. (slight smell of warm corona dope. :P )
Right now the cover to the HV box is removed, I'm thinking of keeping it of like I have in my GE set, because I have found that if I place a fan right in front (120mm), then it has a drastic improvement on cooling, I felt NO warmth at all after running it for quite some time.

So I have to wonder, is the unshielded X-ray risk from the 3A3C/6BK4C really that big a deal?
Were they just being overly cautious? By leaving it off one is not going to end up like Zaphod Beeblebrox or something 2 heads & 3 arms?

Inquiring minds want to know!
