graced the world with this thought:

Is it worth giving this plant a chance? I have enough (15) tomato plants
that I don't really need a huge harvest off of it. It, along with about a
dozen other heirloom varieties, I'm growing for the first time this year.
I'd at least like to get a few tomatoes off of that plant to see how good
they are.

Why not? If you don't need it, then what difference would it make if
it dies on it's own, which I doubt would happen from the minimal
damage you've described.
