If it increases the possibility space without diminishing the overall experience, you should leave it in even if you personally don't see a use for it. Creative players and streamers will find something to do with it eventually
This one is harder to explain in 1 tweet, but I often design for what will play well on a stream or YouTube vid first + it usually ends up being great fun for regular play too. I guess: if it's fun to stream it's fun to play, but if it's fun to play it's not always fun to stream
