Senor Bear will still complain that the cups are stretched loose by the steerer forces
The point of the interference fit is that when the shaft pushes the bearing to one side, the interface load between the parts never drops to zero on the relaxed side. That's why it's important (if you want to avoid fretting) that the degree of interference is properly calculated relative to the stiffness of the parts and the anticipated service load.

Yes but then Senor Bear will still complain that the cups are stretched loose by the steerer forces. I still really have no idea if that would happen or not.
