The response is the "If it is deemed acceptable" in the clause itself.

If root growth is restricted in other directions then it is unlikely to be
acceptable to reduce clearance on what might be the only the side where
unrestricted root growth can take place.  Also there's no point making the
"corresponding increase" in fencing distance to protect ground with no roots
growing in it, so the exercise becomes pointless.
