The twisting serves to keep the wire centers as close together as possible.For reasonable twists, the sin(angle) is still very close to zero, so the axial (solenoidal) field components are also close to zero.
Any looseness of the conductors, spacing wise, is a much bigger inductance adder than the helically twisting dipole field..
As the pitch angle closes in on 90o, the structure would become a bifilar style wind, with still very little inductance..pitches in the middle would be the worst, because the opposite wire is angled to not null the fields...
So yah, technically, you are dead on, but practically, the pitch angles wires are typically at, the effect is much smaller that the benefit of forced proximity.
