Yes. Well, ish.
At most, do the minimal reporting you have to so. The problem is, as a human you might innocently give the officer some cause to suspect you in some way, or in some way mitigate the crime against you. I know people who have felt more anger after the police turn up to do their thing than they did on discovering the crime.
I would only involve the police in something I felt was very serious, which had to be solved, and could not be solved any other reasonable way. My definition of something very serious? Don't know till it happens, and frankly I'm sure we all have our own ideas of limits.
Burglary wise, don't know about other countries, but here in the UK the only real reason to report a normal burglary is to get a crime number for the insurance company. Mugging is pretty much the same, assuming you have something stolen which is insured. And luckily that can be very minimal, Im think, cant be sure, you can report crime online and get an instant crime number for insurance purposes. I think it probably only worth it is people get physically hurt or something vital is stolen and can't be replaced. Even then...
