Additionally, I don;t understand why it would be such a huge problem. I will use 2 examples.

1. I use 1 tick data and my code places an order to buy at 101.25 limit. Time is 10:01:15.55 At that moment, the ask is 102.00.
at 10:01:16.00 the ask is 101.25 and my order is filled.

No matter if that were live or not should I not get my signal at that point?

Assuming the answer for reasons I do not know is no. It is my opinion, what would be the reason for doing a back test for something that would not have happened? Even being conservative can create a much worse event live than in a simulation that is not correct.
