Not really a problem. The wood will dry out regularly, so it won’t rot.

End cuts trapped behind fascia can retain water if they’re not completely sealed off from it getting in there in the first place. Better to treat your ends before covering them because even if you do it perfectly now, the deck can get worn or damaged later and allow water intrusion. Lasting builds design for reasonable fault tolerances.
