I noticed with the holiday patch that there are new trees and shrubs that spawn on my land. One popped up today, being specifically an X-Mas tree - which costs 25,000 gold to remove. Is there any benefit to removing this X-Mas tree? Is there any benefit to leaving it there?
It is noticeably the most expensive obstacle to remove yet.

X-Mas trees are back again this year, and once again you can cut them down for a small resource profit. (It appears to be 75k payout for 25k invested = 50k profit, just like last year)
However - now X-Mas trees also spawn presents! If you remove the tree, you lose the chance to get presents from it. The presents I've seen so far only give 5k elixir a pop.
Thus it may be more profitable in the short-term to leave these trees alone, at least until they stop dropping presents!
7I ended up removing it as I am almost certain it provides no defensive traits to my base. Opposing troops just walked right past it.
It took 30 seconds to remove and I was rewarded with 75,000 Gold. A 50k profit in 30 seconds makes it well worth it to remove it from the land.
1There is no benefit to leaving it other than it makes you look cool; but if you remove it (which costs 25K gold) it rewards you with 75k gold. So it's either a 50 K profit or looking cool. I would choose looking cool over a small profit.
Chopping it down gives you 300 gems and the gold
