"Although the tests were run in a laboratory environment, wear was reduced by as much as 70% by going from a 40 micron filter to a 15 micron filter." - SAE
So i would not say that just because the filter doesn't catch it, it can't cause problems. remember bearing clearances are in the order of thousandths of an inch, and they're a lot softer material than say, your cylinder bores.
