I don't think so. The cutting edge still only sees a single bevel angle. Some Japanese razors have a bevel on only one side. Some American Indian tribes also put a bevel on only one side of a knife, even today. As long as both sides of the cutting edge are free of burrs, meet somewhat evenly, and are polished a bit: I'd say it's a sharp edge and not a long term issue at all.
