The reality is sparkling helps and every bit helps. The question then becomes, is it worth your time and is it necessary. The combined fleet battles last event didn't need much sparkling, but if you were to sparkle you'd do the second fleet as it was exposed to sub and night battle nodes. First fleet didn't need any sparkling as it would usually only engage on the boss node.

If you are experimenting, then probably not sparkle as who knows where you'll end up with dead ends wasting it.

If you know the branching rules and your ships keep getting hammered, you can try to sparkle to increase your success rates (but of course nothing is guaranteed).

If you are low on buckets, not much choice there then. Make every attempt count.

I'm not going to sparkle unless as a last resort. Last resort will happen when resources start to get low. Gotta eat these buckets somehow.
