2007 Audi A3 - any sense to invest in underbody rust removal and treatment?

Hey Scotty, I've had my Audi A3 (5 door) since 2007. Bought it new. I know you dislike Audi, but my car has been impressively reliable, more so than my previous Toyota and Nissan. I was going to trade up to an electric car in 2022, but after seeing your videos I've decided I'm going to wait another few years.

My A3 is in great shape. 95k miles. But there's a good bit of underbody rust. No structural issues, as I think it's mostly surface rust. Should I get it removed and the underbody recoated? I don't know how expensive it would be to do this... and if it won't make any difference for 5 years down the road, then I assume I'd just be throwing good money away. Or should I just get a good anti-rust spray, remove the more notable rust myself and just paint over it?

I would just wash the undercarriage more often in winter months.
