Let me rephrase: If you feel the need to wear a mask, do it. If not, don't.
Edit:
in the prior this has high probability based on logic and the experience of many years
Reality can be counter-intuitive if you put your logic and experience to the test. Famous example: Using diuretics for antidiuretic effects [1]
Even a banal situation like wearing a face mask during surgery leads to inconclusive results [2]. Does it increase or decrease the number of cases of wound infections? There seems to be no clear evidence atm
