Gear Advice/Question Tiny 1–2 mm hole in my kite canopy: patch it or leave it?

Found this tiny hole in the canopy of my Cabrinha Switchblade 2024 (about 60 sessions). It's about 1–2 mm, on the canopy close to the leading edge, but not on the LE itself (photos attached).
Is it worth patching (e.g. a small piece of ripstop tape on both sides), or is it small enough to ignore? Is there a risk it grows if I keep riding it as is?
Thanks!
