I hope thats a typo, .0002", if not, that will seize pretty quick.

I could be wrong, but I never heard of something like that - if your
crank is worn, you need to have it turned so that you have a uniform
size for the bearings, the crank is not going to wear perfectly round, and will not be worn the same amount on every journal - get it turned .010 under,
and buy the corresponding bearings
