It's an interesting thought as to why one would use a fan at all. If its
such a high compute task that you need one, maybe a bigger Pi or an
Intel based machine is indicated.

 I know I don't really need it, but some people claim it's better to have
the CPU at (for instance) 35°C than 48°C. It can't hurt, can it?
 

I think it will probably extend the chip lifetime from about 150 years to a couple of thousand.

I dislike fans. They fail.

 Well, if this one fails I won't be in trouble, because it does fine
without it. ;-)
 

Well that's true!
