If you're running synthetic oil and air filters, you won't be sucking in or generating much of the junk which would otherwise be lodging in the sludge trap. So, I would clean it and reinstall it. You won't have to worry about it for decades and it will be there to keep that last bit of crud from reaching the bearings. The only problem with the sludge trap is clogging, and if you aren't making much stuff to clog it and the oil filter is catching most of THAT, then there is no reason to worry about the trap.
