As long as it's running smooth, I see no problems. Sounds like the
carb may be partly fouled. If enough gas goes through it, might
clean itself too. If you have any carb cleaner, running some of
that through might help too. I have a leaf blower that I have to
run on half choke most of the time too. It's been that way since
it was almost new. Old ones you could easily adjust, new ones, not
so much, so I use it that way and it's fine. Good luck down there.

It my need the choke if it is net getting enough fuel through the carb.
The choke allows it to get the proper fuel/air ratio. 'd run it.

and you can thank the EPA for not being able to adjust it and fix it correctly

Since it's obviously not an adjustment problem, that doesn't make any
difference. Clean the carb, or fix the intake leak.
