The only reason that 2-wheeled Gold Wing riders would move the front forks up 10mm in the triple tree with the Traxxion kit installed was to keep the ride height at a more normal level. The Traxxion fork kits are much more stiff than the stock Honda springs so the bike sits higher at rest.

Those riders with short legs, like me, moved the fork tubes up in the triple tree 10mm so that more of a stock ride height was maintained and we could still flat-foot at stops.

There is no reason to move the forks up 10mm on a trike, since you don't need to hold the bike up at stops. Better to have the increased ground clearance. Plus, you won't need the fork spacers that are typically added to the forks by the trike kit manufacturer/installer to give the trike proper ground clearance with the increased weight.
