All my electrics have 10-46 on at the moment and they've all at some time or another had 13-56 where I've had to widen the slot for the string to sit in nicely. Not gone as big as a .060 though so maybe there's a tipping point where it could get problematic....
I don't see why it would if you cut straight down the centre, the string should still settle to the middle of the slot.
I've done this before on bass, after going from .130 back to .105 and it was fine. I've not done it on guitar yet because I've not needed to tune back up to standard, but if I do it'll be a pretty huge jump on some guitars which are filed for .070 right now. One of my guitars was filed for .070 and was fine with a .056, I'm using a .060 in it currently.

Haha. Honestly it's interesting, I'd never considered this aspect before
