Definitely not - if it works.

This was the tricky part of ZMS.  I spent hours to get the .zexp
stuff working which is needed if you want to create a ZMS instance.
I did some symlinks and permisson changing tricks until it worked.
You definitely have to test it carefully.  Just try to create an
inctance of ZMS (in an instance of every Zope version in question
(2.8 + 2.9 perhaps).

Kind regards

            Andreas.
