You can still back up the folder and restore if needed. In my case it didn't destroy anything as I still had 13.000 books unindexed (I have 13.255) and the indexing would never end. IMO its the right thing to do if you have more than, lets say, a thousand books. And what's the point of having a 32GB kindle if not to stuff it with a huge library? The thing is all that indexing and battery drainage I had would eventually shorten the lifespan of my device. As soon as I disconnected it would drop to 97% and to 80% in a couple of hours. Now with no "Search Indexes" folder it lasts for weeks.
