Dwarf Singapore Pink pruning question

daogirl - SoCal Zone 9

My DSP is trying to put out a bunch of inflos, but there are so many leaves all tightly woven together that I'm not sure how easy of a time some of these buds will have opening. I'm also used to pruning plants to increase airflow within the plant. Do any of you guys actively prune the leaves on your Dwarf Singapores?

I just try to gently position the inflo and leaves as best as possible. However a leaf isn't as desired an an inflo and sometimes I pull them off to give more room.
