I have been researching Twinkies and ran across an article discussing a spar reinforcement if there were cracks.  My question is this worth doing as a preventative measure?

The AD should always be complied with.  A lot will depend on the age of the airframe and how it was used.  A low time aircraft with one or two careful owners is going to have a very different expereince than a trainer, for example.

I personally would not do a maintenance activity as intrusive as a spar reinforcement unless there was an inspection that produced a result or an AD requiring it.
