Default Twisted a brake line, is this a big deal?

When I installed the stainless brake line, I failed to use the correct wrench and twisted the line a bit behind the bracket. Is this a big deal, worth worrying about? The line is still solid, and there are no leaks, I'm just unsure whether the line has enough pressure. I can still brake okay, and it seems to drive fine, but this has bugged me.

Really wondering if I should change out the whole line over this problem, or is it okay, or what?

The line looks crimped, so the fliud flow would be affected, how bad . . . . not sure . . .
