Well, try it out and then you know. 
As you noted, I use Nik Output Sharpening to compensate for ink bleeding (as part of the printing process, if you will), but not “creatively” to compensate for lack of image sharpness, magnification, or anything else.
The level of “output sharpening” depends on the printer (droplet size, etc.), ink type (dye/pigment ink), and media (glossy/glossy/semi-matte/matte/textured paper). In general, the coarser the surface, the more sharpening may be required. That is, when I want the least amount of sharpening I set Nik to Glossy.
About 15 years ago, my first printer that could print on fine art paper was an Epson Stylus Photo R2400 with the option to set it to 5760 (Photo RPM) for the finest details. However, it turned out that there was no visible difference with the next lower printer resolution. And with higher resolution, the printer applied more ink to the paper, making the images noticeably darker … even today.
Also, I don’t print out ID cards or anything similar to check them up close (at nose length).
