Probably not if your change is local and only affects you. We
wouldn't change this for the official version of TMDA since, if you
have an address configured as an alias for several mailboxes,
presumably each of those mailboxes should receive a copy. As you've
noted, re-injecting the message to the X-TMDA-Recipient will cause
that to happen, whereas re-injecting it to Delivered-To will not.
Given your particular situation and your knowledge of your MTA's
configuration, it seems a safe change to make.
