Plug patch in Winter Tire

[MaxWayt]

I recently got a piece of metal in my tire, brought it to a shop I trust and they assured me it can just be repaired.

They patched it with a patch plug, the one you put from inside the tire. And told me it's no risk / no reduced performance of the tire etc.

Is this the case? Since it's mounted on a Plaid S I'm being overly cautious.

(Attached pictures of the foreign object in the tire & patched tire).

Thanks!
