I would say try it out.
If it feels comfortable while you tow it, then you are probably fine since you seem to be well within the ratings.
I tow my camper within ratings, without a WDH and have experienced zero issues, zero sway, zero drama. Adding a WDH would only cost me $$, add complexity and potentially create a towing issue that doesn't currently exist if I don't get it set up properly.
Under a different scenario a WDH might make perfect sense, but currently it does not.
