Default FE Windage tray

Is there any reason to use a windage tray on an FE motor since the skirts of the Y-block configuration push the oil pan down a couple inches past the crank compared to the other style blocks. The crank doesn't really come near the oil to whip it up and cause airation and with a good pan with baffles it should be an issue. Anyway thats my observation I would like to hear from someone with real world experence.
