You can never get them perfect again after you open them
If you can only feel it in your hand and not on the bike don't worry about it.
Was there any need to service them?

The hub will wear differently and settle as you ride. No point to obsess over small things.
Your post was (is) nonsense.
1) You have no way of knowing whether the hubs came "set up perfectly from Shimano" - and that is irrelevant to the OP's problem, anyway.
2) If you had ever worked on a cup & cone hub, you would know that it is indeed not difficult to "get them perfect again after you open them." People do it all the time. I've done it many times. In fact, I've never
not done it when servicing hubs.
3) On what grounds do you know that it is NOT a problem since the OP can't "feel it" on the bike? The OP doesn't even know what the problem is, and somehow YOU know that it's not a real problem?
4) The question of whether the hubs need servicing is not what we're discussing. It's irrelevant.
If you have some useful advice, I'm all ears.
