Per the IRS:

"Taxpayers and tax professionals are urged to enter the verification code when prompted by software, as it can speed the processing of the return and the issuance of the refund. However, omitted and incorrect verification codes will not delay the processing of a tax return."

i.e. It is a really good idea to do it and it doesn't take that much time, so WHY NOT?
