If the DMT is properly broken in, I don't think so.
I have honed, rougly estimated, about 100 razors with a progression including a DMT D6E. Never encountered any overhoning issues.
It is possible that the Begian Blue with slurry removes any develloping "wireness" from the very edge, but I also inspect most of my razors at 40X magnification while honing, and I never saw anything that fits the descreption of a wire edge, after the DMT.
I did see microchipping from DMT's that were not completely broken in.
