Lift Landing Location

You might be thinking I'm just making up things to fret about, but I received a plan check comment on this. It's an existing condition. A lift adjacent to a stair (pretty standard stuff). The lift requires a 60" square landing. My clear distance from wall to low wall separating the lift from the stair is 59.5". Beyond that low wall I have plenty of room for the 60" landing. A landing allows someone to enter or exit the lift and provides a turning radius. Does it matter if the landing is 5" from the face of the lift as shown on the attached?

Could you consider it similar to the 8” max. recess allowed at all other doors and gates?
See Fig. 11B-404.2.4.3.

Seems reasonable to me.
