I guess you are lucky, it's not uncommon for such chainring to pop out even on a fixed wheel drivetrain.

What, the chain popping out?
Can't see why it would but if it happens to people, there's nothing for me to argue about...
When I installed that crankset on the Brompton I had not shortened my chain enough and even then it wasn't going anywhere.
I used such chainrings also on many fixie skidder atrocity builds in my life because I didn't want to pay the premium for track rings, again with no problem.
So many things are big "no no" around bikes that I've done without dying... The best one would be the top to bottom wrapping of drop handle bars!I'd happily admit a track one would look better though...

I suppose it's not ideal, but a ramped and pinned chain ring does work fine. I'm using one with the 110 bcd fsa cranks, since 2-3 years on the Brompton, and all is fine...
