What's the benefit of closing it now when I don't even know if there is a functional issue vs waiting for a force closure?

You start clean and avoid the trouble coming with a FC (longer waiting time, higher fees or even zombie channel etc).

14MB is not so much for a channel, but when you have some hundreds like that, it became a problem. Especially if is a hosted node, not on your own machine with lots of space available.

Ok. It is on my own machine and I only have 10 channels, so it seems like it's probably not a pressing issue yet.

Is a LND node ?
Try compacting the db.
Soon LND will have also a migration to SQlite so will be a real improvement. But anyways, the migration tool will include a compactation process too, so you better be prepared.
Compactation always helps, but is not necessary to do it very often.
