When the old-style-mp support was disabled on the main map, this left about 50,000 broken multipolygons, in many cases clearly visible on the map. I didn't see a single complaint about this. So, no, I don't think being a bit more strict with broken MPs will be a problem with the map or would be a reason to delay deployment of a new osm2pgsql version. 10,000 intersection problems in 300 million polygons is a rounding error. Note also that Mapbox has been using libosmium code for a while and they are actively fixing large broken MPs every day to keep the map from breaking in a bad way.
