Tiger, airing down has some benefit for those that do it...but it may be physiological. I frequent Oceano Dunes and never air down.
There is sand, and there is SAND. While I've driven the beaches along the gulf and many desert back roads (in a 2016 Tacoma Off Road) without airing down, it isn't going to happen in the soft sand in parts of the east coast. For example, you are not going to get very far on Nantucket Island beaches or many of the sand roads near the beaches without airing down. For those that believe it doesn't make a difference, you haven't driven soft sand, with or without modern traction control.
