Esp32. ST7796 Display. TFT_eSPI. RST pin question

Hi guys,
My current project (automotive datalogger) is using pretty much all pins so I'm looking for a way to free up a pin or two.
I just tried connecting the RST pin of the ST7796 4" TFT display to 3V3, and set the RST pin to -1 in the TFT_eSPI user setup file and all seems to be working well after several resets of the ESP32.
Is there any reason why I shouldn't do this?
The display starts and seems to run fine.
Just added a 10K pullup instead of directly to 3V3 and that works fine too.
Seems all good but anyone have any suggestions or warnings that could be useful?
Cheers
Matt
