It is not the size of the item that matters, it is the value. If you send 100 items, each worth $200, and signature confirmation costs $2.20 per package, that adds $220 to your costs. If there are no problems, or only one problem, then the signature confirmation would not be worth it. If you have 2 problems, then it would save you $180. So, figure out how many packages have historically had this problem and calculate your loss rate as a percentage of packages sent. Then you can make a business decision as to whether or not it is worth it.
This answer is going to be different for each seller depending on what you sell. Some types of items attract more scammers than others. Also keep in mind that while signature confirmation will help you win a seller protection case, it probably won't help much if the package is lost or damaged. For that you would need to insure each package.
