Yes, since they are totally unnecessary.

If you want to reduce "creep" in your glue up, break there job into
multiple glue ups.

If the total glue up is 16 strips, then do 8 glue ups of 2 strips
each.

When dry, do 4 glue ups of 4 strips each.

When dry, do 2 glue ups of 8 strips each.

When dry, proceed.

You have 16 strips glued together with minimum "creep" while
making only a single joint with each glue up.

Exactly what I am doing now with 6 cutting boards. Except I went 5 at a
time..
