ATLAS displaced vertices question

Description

Generating SUSY processes, we have encountered that in about 3% of the events there are very displaced vertices, from 100s of meters to 1e+28 meters. In all cases, these vertices are of status 11 particles (in and out), so we assume they are just for bookkeeping and should not affect the physics. However, we wanted to make sure that this is the case and ask.
