It's always good to learn what insurance companies view as worthwhile or not. Their very business, and what they do all day, is assess these risks. So, they have more detailed info than any of us posting here.
But, did you not ask the all-important question of WHY they don't recommend it? The details are relevant for having a better understanding of this issue.
