Short answer no, long answer barely.

Node distribution of miners has some impact on centralization of power,
which has implications for state and regulatory capture of bitcoin. And in
the long run DW may want to lobby the miners to prioritize certain types of
transactions.

In the short run I think we don't need to think about mining.
