If your tank is doing well and you like the look of sand why change what you're doing? Unfortunately, not all tanks can handle the extra nutrients of an un-maintained sand bed.
My tanks have been bare bottom for the past 6 or 7 years. I like the look, and I don't miss dealing with sand and the crud it collects. But of course this is just my preference.

I voted no. When I had a sandbed its was pretty deep in both the tank and refugium/sump. Lots of critters so I never siphoned it. Mind you that was back when that was the big thing.
I have been running bare for years now. Was going to add some to my new tank for wrasses but the pain of looking after it was not worth it.
