You have to know your business needs.
Just a notice:
Schould your directories expire,
you still will be able to restore your files.
The only difference is the directory tree will not be restored
(because of directories in TSM expired => lost),
but re-created, just like you would issue series of MKDIR
commands.
Consequently, you will have correct directory names,
but not your old access rights and another attributes (like hidden, or
extended attributes in OS/2, etc.).

If this is not an issue for you,
you can define DIRMC with short retention period,
thus saving your tsm database space.

If directory attributes are important for you,
you may even define DIRMC with unlimited settings,
at least for nodes concerned.
