The answer is no, you wouldn't. As you say , circling protective area is calculated to accomodate turns as shallow as 20° at max speed for the given category. If you do a 25° turn, it comes out tighter. If you did a 10° manouvre over 20° protective area, that is where you find yourself outside the protected airspace.
