I don't see any problem. I think they are there to kep road debris off the rotors on dirt roads and loose gravel. May also keep road grime off the rotors.
I know it is recommended to remove them for racing...

Re: Removing the Brake Shields (81vette)
TTT- I'm thinking about removing mine because I have the front apart right now. It appears that C4's and C5's don't use shields. Any inputs?
