Taking a bunch of wounds in a city assault is a very rare thing, so far. Usually it's pretty clean.
If you aren't taking wounds because they would be hard to handle because you don't have In Need, then of course In Need will never be useful. You can't use the number of wounds that you take when you don't have cards that benefit from wounds as an estimate of how many wounds you would take if you actually had such cards.
If your claim is that it's just as easy to conquer a city without wounds as with wounds, then I don't agree with that. Especially if you have units with ranged or block abilities, so you can use their abilities and also wound them in the same battle.
If you're racing your opponent(s) to defeat more difficult sites and cities as fast as possible, then one way to do that is to take wounds and have some way to deal with them. Of course, if you wait long enough, you can become strong enough that you have no reason to take wounds.
