You are certainly approaching, if not already in the area of diminishing returns.

If the goal is optimize to the 'nth' degree, then equip each antenna with a dedicated preamp. Combine downstream of the preamps thus avoiding the NM hit due to the insertion loss of the combiner.

Only if I had a marginal signal that I wanted to make more stable would I consider spending time and money on such a plan.
