Maybe I should just leave it alone? It's working fine now, & I can see how this taking apart/putting back together could turn out badly and cause it to NOT work then.

Dabbers nest will restrict heat transfer, cause improper flame pattern, could cause blow back and sooting which will just cause more issues.
Removing burner tube, orifice, spark electrode is NOT brain surgery.
Very easy, simple job and the results are worth the effort
