Gamma to X-Ray Transition

No one should be eating radioactive cookies, but from what I recall having the alpha emitter inside you (e.g. in lungs, one of the elements of tobacco smoke is IIRC an alpha-emitter) where it easily damages the linings INSIDE the body (lungs, intestines) is where the most risk for them comes from.

It seems to me there is a basis for justification/not repeating max dose study with a risk assessment and supporting literature evidence but I wonder how investigators/auditors would view this?

As long as your risk assessment and supporting evidence is scientifically sound, there is no reason to fear an investigator/auditor. You may e.g. start with this article and those that cite this one and this hypothesis (taken from a contractor I am not affiliated with):
