FICM Flash or not after repair???

I 've been reading posts and absorbing all that has been said about the FICM issue. I had to replace My FICM as it failed one AM. Heres My question: Do You Guys believe that I should get My FICM flashed? It was repaired by SWAMPS and is out of an 03'? The Truck Runs and starts great.

If you have the factory flash and it works fine, it is optional.

If you got one of the interim flashes that is the FICM killer (inductive heating too high) flash it again.

They can update every single module for the same $$$ while you are there.
