does the ps5 slim need its feet to lie flat?

want mine on its side under the tv. it came with two little plastic feet for horizontal. do they matter, or is it fine flat on the shelf without them? bit worried about airflow.

leave some room behind it as well. the exhaust comes out the back and people push it right against the wall or into a closed cabinet, then wonder why the fan is loud.

Yeah, use them. The Slim comes with two little feet in the box for exactly this, and they keep it stable and the vents clear. It's the vertical stand you have to buy separately.
