So, what's the general view on/experience with patch clusters, anyway? Apply
them religiously, or only apply patches that you know you need? I'd hate to
apply a cluster and be worse off than I was.

No other patches depend on those two patches AFAIK. I'm doing the same
thing you are doing without problems. Remove the patches from the
patch_order file and remove their directories, and you'll be fine.
