You make a good point ... if shooting unshouldered, there's less of a stable platform for the weapon to operate with, therefore seems more susceptible to a malfunction / out of battery making a forward assist more desirable. I'm sure they're be a ton of opinion both ways, but ultimately you'll need to determine if it's peace of mind you want to have. Thinking about it, it would be for me.
