SN74LVC1G3157: Input transition time requirement for digital pins (dt/dv)

Part Number: SN74LVC1G3157
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TS3A5223

I am using SN74LVC1G3157 with Vcc = 3.3V

Page 3 of the datasheet recommends that the maximum of dt/dv = 10ns/V

However, I2C signal's falling time could be as long as 300ns, far exceeding the recommended maximum of dt/dv =10ns/V. The input signal slew rates matter for clocked flip flops or latches.

My questions are:
(1) Is  "the maximum of dt/dv =10ns/V" a hard requirement?
(2) What happens if my inputs do not meet this requirement of " the maximum of dt/dv =10ns/V"?

Thanks
