Please do. A couple reasons why: the way we represent a “not a number” value (typically 0x7FFF FFFF in current hardware) will vary depending on the software you’re using. And the groov gadget/version. Sanity checking is especially important if you’re doing any math like totalizing on the value or visualization (like a trend).
