Is this a dangerous AC LL value for my i5-13400F?

I own an i5-13400F with C0 die running on an Asus TUF B760. I think I'm pressumably out of danger of the Raptor Lake degradation issue (basically because my CPU is a rebranded Alder Lake silicon after all), but I have checked my AC Load Line value in HWiNFO64 after reading some post titled "13/14th gen Intel baseline can still degrade CPU, even with new microcode, due to AC LL" ...
...and it turns out it's 1.700 mOhm, way higher than the recommended value, and now I'm pretty scared because I don't know how to change the BIOS settings. The valid range is between 0.01 and 62.49, but I don't know what value should I type in order to get around 0.900 mOhm. I tried exporting BIOS contents to a text file with SCEWIN, but I can't see any value, only "Auto". I'm running the latest stable BIOS for my motherboard. The one with the 0x12B update is in beta stage. I'm using Intel Baseline Profile, I have set ICCMax on 140 (intel's recommended value) and my CPU Load-Line Calibration is 1, the lowest possible.

From what I recall, the 65W TDP processors like yours was not affected by the issue, so no concern as far as I can tell.
