If secure boot is enabled, you need to encrypt the swap partition,

haven't had a chance to test that yet.
Is there a benefit to having secure boot enabled?
It's a security thing. As long as it doesn't interfere with my use,
I just
leave it at the default enabled.

If you don't have any concerns about the physical security of your
computer and you're only running Fedora, then very little.
However if a bad actor gets your laptop they may well be able to get
your credentials out of the memory image saved when you hibernate.
So that would be a concern about the physical security of your computer.
