Why not? Not like 80mm gonna cause issues, it still ride like a bike.
A penny farthing still rides like a bike. This is about getting good fit + good handling. ~100mm stems are where it's at. Accept no substitutes.
You'll still get good handling with the 80mm stem, it only feel different but still handle the same.
