Minumum Possible Extrusion Length on Prusa MK3S?

Does anyone know what's the minimum extrusion prusa mk3s can do?

I tried to calculate it, nema 17 motor has a resolution of 0.9° Bondtech gear has a diameter of 8mm

So simple calculation suggests minimum length that the extruder can extrude should be

((pi*8)/360)*0.9 = 0.06mm

Am I missing anything? Or is that correct

I believe I have seen E numbers lower than that in my GCODEs.
What would happen if I give a G1 command with an E value lower than this?
