Absolutely. As I said above, I don't think there is a simple right and wrong answer here.

And no offense to tbct_mt2, but I think they have misunderstood the question. Yes, it is generally better if you can avoid consolidating UTXOs, but this is not the case when dealing with Stonewall transactions as you are here, where the whole point is to either coinjoin with another user or create a transaction which looks like you've coinjoined with another user.
