You're probably right about higher end brands being more likely to be within tolerance, but even if it does creak you can probably sort it, if not with some bearing retention compound then with one of those nice clamping BBs which make the whole arrangement a lot more legit... Although that solution is fairly spendy, involving a new tool.
