Question Intake runner polishing/smoothing

I recently bought a GT-40 intake and I am in the process of smoothing the outside of the lower to clean up it's appearance a bit. My question is this...
Inside the lower intake ports it is very rough and I was wondering if it is ok to smooth that out a bit just to remove the bumps. I don't intend on changing the size of the ports or anything like that until I get some aftermarket heads and then I'll gasket match it to those.

What would I gain by doing this if anything at all? Also, would this cause puddling of the fuel, or is it just in the heads where this can occur with too smooth of an intake port? Thanks.
