Is there any value in leaving Tubbs to enjoy his meal after he ate it?

Is there any value in not replacing the food just eaten by Tubbs until he departs by himself?
Will he give me more fish if I leave him alone?

Based on Tubbs' entry on the Neko Atsume unofficial wiki:
Tubbs will leave eventually, or immediately should the player replace the Food. However, the player will be rewarded with more Fish or Gold Fish if Tubbs leaves on its own.
I have also experienced this behavior in my own personal playthrough. Ultimately, I would conclude that one does get more fish if the food is left alone until Tubbs departs.
