Hi Dmitry,
The main answer is to use your own scientific judgment, as I'm not aware of specific guidelines or rules, and we do not "prescribe" a certain behavior.
However, it's worth mentioning that many very good papers mention using Chimera "hide dust" (same feature as in ChimeraX) ... here are a couple of recent open-access examples:
CM1-driven assembly and activation of yeast γ-tubulin small complex underlies microtubule nucleation.
