Is theoretically yes, at what point would such a risk become somewhat practical?

Similar to Shamirs secret sharing, having T-1 shares actually provides you zero information. There is no information leakage. Using a finite field with "wrapping around" is fundamental for this property. The wiki page on SSS is really solid:
