Nginx stop logging

[Vincent M.]

On my Rocky Linux 9, I have found this file /etc/logrotate.d/nginx
/var/log/nginx/*log {
     daily
     rotate 10
     missingok
     notifempty
     compress
     delaycompress
     sharedscripts
     postrotate
         /bin/kill -USR1 `cat /run/nginx.pid 2>/dev/null` 2>/dev/null || 
true
     endscript
}

Whereas I have on my Fedora 36 (with a working fine log rotation process):
/var/log/nginx/*.log {
     create 0640 nginx root
     daily
     rotate 10
     missingok
     notifempty
     compress
     delaycompress
     sharedscripts
     postrotate
         /bin/kill -USR1 `cat /run/nginx.pid 2>/dev/null` 2>/dev/null || 
true
     endscript
}

Can I had on (create 0640 nginx root) on the server whitout risking to 
break everything on next logs rotates?

Thank you,
Vincent.
