Skipping that step never hurts my baking results.

Chilling the dough and cold butter always works for me.

What's your usual chill time, an hour or more?

Honestly the whole temperature debate misses how humid your kitchen is. Flour acts different when the air feels like soup, lol. I just grab whatever butter is in the fridge and adjust the flour by a couple tablespoons if it's a sticky day. Works way better than waiting for stuff to warm up.

Chilling the dough for like an hour made a huge difference for mine. They stopped spreading too thin in the oven. Cold butter and a bit less white sugar helped too, idk why but it worked.
