I'd say give it try, before you cut the bars. And maybe tilt them up a bit to create a little bit of upwards sweep.
I have a set of 850 mm Stridsland bars, and they are so damn comfy, I wouldn't want them any narrower. And I am not excactly built like an orangutang.

I think the added with also helps make up for the reduced reach when going from drops to flats.

850!?!? I guess the rise helps it feel a bit less spread-eagle-y

I did get them down to 720 and it’s a nice width, and they barely fit through the narrow hallway as is haha.

Matias has definitely worked hard to create a product that works.
I wasn't fully comitted to the hype, when I bought mine, but the amount of stability they bring at that width with a 50mm stem is incredible.
