This depends on what you want to do with backupsets and how much space do you have in the library. If you are constrained in library slots - there is no other option than to check backupsets out. If you want to use them for long term archives and/or send them off-site - same answer. If you want to use them for LAN-free restore - again check them out. But if you want to use them for collocation on single filespace(s) or for archives with short retension (and have enough space in library) - keep them. So in very rare circumstances there is benefit not to check backupsets out of the library.
