The SetupIntent flow

#

It will validate the card but won't charge it

#

Is there any benefit in us performing an additional $1 charge to ensure the card is usable?

#

Our business is very sensitive to invalid cards being used for free trials

#

Also thank you for the response and your time! I really appreciate it

#

No, the idea is that you should leave it to Stripe (by using the SetupIntent API)

#

Are there drawbacks to doing the additional validation ourselves?

#

Your complexity I would say, and refunding doesn't give back the Stripe fee (not sure in case of $1)
