Both of those are common changes. The 5 and 10 lower often shows up on LKV, but it's fine there

I drop mine to C# with a half stop at D.
Here's a few uses for it.

Should I have it changed to a normal Day setup or just use it?

I'd leave it alone. You can pull 1 to G with the ring finger.
Even if you were used to working on ZB.
The B drop is useful.
