My daughter has been diagnosed with periodic fever syndrome, presenting as HIDS. I was in the camp of don't treat the fever, treat the pain before her diagnosis. Until her board certified pediatric rheumatologist and pediatric immunologist said that the inflammation related to her syndrome causes damage. But in children absent chronic health conditions, I agree, let them have their fevers. Let the immune system do its job.
