The oil pump keeps the cam pushed back against the block (yes, even on decel) so the button really doesn't have that hard of a job to to.

If you have the "wrong" type of retaining device - it will do exactly as you so state.

If you were to use a roller button and not leave any end play, it would load the cam against the block and cause wear. (on a side note, with any new cam you need to take a needle file and MAKE SURE there are no burrs on the riding surface of the cam flange. The smallest booger there will chew up the block)
