I assumed you had-just a blanket principle (carry over fromo my day job in industrial maintenance).  I'd rather have a plain receptacle than a non functioning GFCI giving a false sesne of protection.
Not to flog this dead horse (GFCI already replaced) BUT I bench tested it before discarding and it is still functional (responds to test button) BUT, the red "tripped" LED does not light.

I rather have fully functional GFCI outlets near water/plumbing in my casa.

The new improved (skinny) GFCIs arrived and surprisingly about same size as my old ones.   ::)

I disassembled the old faulty GFCI because i could, only 4 screws. I found some odd loose wires floating around inside and more symptoms of heat damage, but the evidence still points to loose (line) mains wire attachment. So mea culpa.   :-[
