Perhaps, unless you're doing no-till. I bet my soil in my indoor grows are producing many grams of pure dead arthropod bodies every week, continuously. I don't have to buy or do anything which is my preferred method.
I was showing a buddy my tote grow the other day and he tripped out when he saw all the "lice" become visible and active on the soil after I watered. I just smiled and told him those "lice" are the secret weapon. I know worms and their castings are seen as the gold standard for life in the soil, but these spring tails are a relentless army tearing through the top layers of the soil. Diversity is a beautiful thing for sure as it hopefully means things have found a nice little balance.
Since I love looking at the contents of the worm bins, I noticed an unusually large looking soil mite the other day. I pulled out the loupe and looked closer and it looked like a hypoapsis mile on steroids. It had huge, for its size of course, pinchers on the front of its body. It moved a bit slower than the spring tails and hypoapsis miles, but I hope that little tank was one of the good guys in there.
I think I read somewhere that pill/sow bugs are the only (or maybe one the few) land dwelling crustaceans. Do you think these little guys supply chitin to the soil in the same way that crab shell does? Also, do you think all little arthropods, in one way or another, are bringing out the plants natural responses to keep their defenses up against pests even if they are more so friend than foe?
Sorry for rambling, but love to ramble on about soil dwellers even though I am close to illiterate on their actual roles and purposes for a healthy system. All life is beneficial life in my soil as long as the plants seem to be happy.
Plants look great though OP and I hope everything goes smoothly the rest of the way for you.
