I did this with my tulips for hanging baskets. I read somewhere that the issue here is the roots being inhibited by the paper tunic. usually the tunic just falls away, but it sticks particularly well to the basal plate where the roots emerge. But I really don't know if removing it makes any difference because in my experience growing roots can be pretty darn forceful!
