In principle I'll go along with that. However, as SLF I'm not sure I'm qualified to know when deicing is required. Yes, if there's a covering of actual snow that's obvious but I remember being deiced for a LHR/GVA and being amazed how the upper surface of the wing remained covered with the gloop long after take off. The point being that the surface before and after deicing didn't look significantly different.
