It's absolutely relevant based on the article I linked from sciencemag. It can help save doses for one thing.
“We continue to underestimate the importance of natural infection immunity … especially when [infection] is recent,” says Eric Topol, a physician-scientist at Scripps Research. “And when you bolster that with one dose of vaccine, you take it to levels you can’t possibly match with any vaccine in the world right now.”


Seems to me the question should be asked about natural antibodies because those with some level of natural protection could get additional protection from just one shot rather than using two doses.
