Standard Pipe fittings too steep

Hi,

I'm looking to move the WC and I can see that the standard pipe bends and Tee branches have built in fall which is very convenient. On further investigation of the required fall, I can see the recommend ratios sitting between 1:40 and 1:80 but the standard fittings angle of 92.5 would give a fall ratio closer to 1:20.

Is there enough wiggle room in the fittings to force a 1:40 fall? Would it be a big deal to leave it at 1:20? Why don't they just manufacture the fall of 1degree so it would sit well between 1:40 and 1:80? So weird.

Thanks,
