No.

You might, however, presume that the "wheel" rather than "access_bpf" in the
"ls -l /dev/bpf0" would cause problems.

Try doing

    sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.wireshark.ChmodBPF.plist

    sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.wireshark.ChmodBPF.plist

and repeat the two "ls -l" commands.
