I rarely trim .308. And I only trim .223 because I have the Giraud and it chamfers the necks. The .223 brass doesn't usually trim much off at all unless it's once fired 556 stuff that's really long. After first trim, it's maintenance/chamfer.
I figure I can shoot or I can worry about every minor detail down to the .0001.
It's definitely a balancing act. I don't do anything that doesn't actually improve the ammo. All this depends on volume too. If you only load 50 rounds per week for one bolt gun, you can go balls out and nit pick every little detail. I have too many irons in the fire to be too anal about the ammo.
