People are completely missing your point but I agree. It's not beneficial. Even in the best case it's just going to be neutral.
Well if you're not aroused before and are aroused after, and your goal was to masturbate, that's hardly neutral.
Well it's positive from hedonistic point of view but so is getting high. I'd still claim that there's no physical or psychological health benefits to it. In the best case it simply just doesn't harm you.
