So no, if you aren't interested in reading coredumps yourself you won't benefit immediately. But if you want to increase the chance that the various bugs you undoubtly run into every now and then have the highest chance to be fixed quickly, then it's a good thing if the people who provide you with the software can determine with minimal effort what a coredump or minimal backtrace actually belongs to. And the price for improving the life of your distro developers is just a few 100K on your disk. So while you might not benefit immediately, you will benefit in the long run.
I think the most popular distributions should install and enable the automatic coredumps analyzer, like Fedora has[1]. It will help much more.
