There is an "offset full round head" nail that can be used with clipped head nailers.

What I've read is that the main issue is roof sheathing in areas prone to hurricanes and tornadoes. Clipped head nails are thought to provide less protection against uplift. I have never seen an engineering report on that but it could be out there somewhere.
