Default Throttle Body Relearn??

Hello,
2012 Grand Caravan 3.6L, 130K
The throttle body was cleaned while it was removed and I noticed the blade's resting position may have changed by about 5mm. Internet lore says to either disconnect the negative cable for 15 minutes, or to turn ignition to 'ON," then depress accelerator pedal for 20 seconds, then turn ignition off and wait until vehicle totally shuts down before attempting a restart. Does anyone have any helpful advice as to what to do if the throttle does need recalibration?

Thank you in advance.

Probably the computer relearns by itself after battery disconnect ...and driving for awhile ......if you notice big difference and you think you need to do a relearn - Kingbolen - OBD scanner on Amazon - 100$. does almost everything , including relearn ABS bleeding Keys etc . - works with free app on phone ....best scanner for your money ...
