The problem with going with that much rake is that as you grind the end back, you end up losing your center. Thus, it's no longer center cutting. I dont think that there's a need to over do it. 7 - 10 degrees should really be enough, then you will still have a center left in your end mill at the next re-grind without cutting the end right off and starting over.
