Ram strider - horns may cause cell overlay

I'm new on-board the AoC bandwagon and I am loving what I see so far. In watching the latest update I noticed from the Ram strider that the horns were massive (which are majestic).
I worry that in game, the horns may create cell overlays of the shoulder and horns (where the horns will disappear into the shoulders) during left and right head swings of the ram during movement or idle positions.
I'm thinking that either, a) the horns are designed smaller to facilitate lateral movements without cell overlay issues, or b) there is lore about the ram strider where the neck mechanisms of this beast are biologically designed not to move left and right (or minimal observations) due to their territorial fights in which massive head butting is involved. This would mean that of course the neck is reinforced at the expense of flexible movements. (Maybe even going as far as to say that headbutting from ram fights can be hear kilometers away due to the extreme force created )
Really looking forward to future updates!
