Managed to slightly bend my 6600K by over tightning the screws on the CM 212 Evo. Does Intel plan to have a thicker substraits for cannon, kaby or icelake? Looking online the corners of the motherboardf has a 0.4mm height offset compared to the middle of the die. Thankfully the CPU still posts. I really hope Intel addresses this issue.

Intel Kaby Lake is rumoured to be a bit more sturdy in this respect, but we will have to wait and see. Would be less stress with adding your own cooler to a K model CPU.

Wouldn't worry about half a milimetre. Should be fine for a couple of years until Intel Ice/Tiger Lake or Zen+ give you something worth upgrading to.
