They still work and I like the handles, but I'll get irons next time.

I don't think the above issue occurs to bumper plates.
1. If you just have these you're fine, nothing wrong with a little extra (minimal) ROM unless you're in some kind of formal competition. An inch difference means 1/2 inch lower.
2. If you do Olympic lifts and drop your weight, you could mess up your bumpers since these aren't designed to be dropped (hence the smaller diameter) and your bumpers would be carrying extra load. Most people, even those with bumpers, aren't dropping their weight (I'm not talking about a couple inches), so it really doesn't matter for your average SDer
That's it.

I found it also let's me continue to do more reps with less strain on my back in bad forms that sometimes happen when lowering weight
