I like that a lot better than over-zealous use of an Arrestor Hook. ;)

Having experienced some pretty rough runways in my time I am surprised that a quarterter-inch deep, half-inch wide scrape can make any difference to an aircraft. Maybe fighter-jets are more fussy.

I’d say it wouldn’t affect landing or take off as such, other than an increased risk of punctures.
