No. If it works for some other platform it is likely to be by chance only.
And also not having a reasonable minimal value may affect performance and
stability. 
For example: if you have a tab-stop every 1/100th mm the number of tabsops is
quite large and thus accessing a specific tabstop will become slower.
Also from implementation side the tab-stops are likely to be stored in some
array,  with a fixed upper bound for the index (let's say USHORT_MAX for example
which is about 65536) if by allowing such tiny values for tab-stops the maximal
number for tab-stops will be above that (sth that actually may happen depending
on the specified page width) the array might be too small and if per chance
there is no proper bounds checking implemented the office may crash. And even if
proper bounds checking is implemented any tab-stop above that limit will be of
no use because the values can not be stored.

So forcing some decent 'real-life' value should be the way to go even if from
pure API view there would be no such need.
