I wouldn't lose any sleep over it....but I'm not a pro. Don't think there is anything wrong, though.

Really, it depends on what your local codes allow. You would have to check with them.

If it was done properly, and your description implies that it was, then it is a flare joint, not a compression one, and it will not loosen, or leak, no matter how much the line is bumped or twisted.
