As far as we know now, vaccinated people who contract covid shed less virus for a shorter period of time: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/variants/delta-var...

Yes but so what? Since the virus is now endemic and can't be eradicated, all of us will be exposed multiple times throughout our lives no matter what we do or how many people are vaccinated. Vaccination provides good protection against severe symptoms, but over the long run it won't prevent others from being exposed.
I imagine you know this, but maybe there’s some reason you think it doesn’t matter: It will lower the rate of exposure.
