I've got the 16 tooth up front, and have been contemplating getting a tooth or 2 smaller in the back to lower the rpms a hair..... but really, not sure it's even worth it. These bike aren't meant to rocket around top speed.

I think you have just answered your own question. Not having a lot of power to begin with is a deciding factor when gearing comes into play. I have found the original gearing on most bikes is pretty close for the intended riding purpose.
It is fun to experiment but be sure you want to make the $ investment knowing you may be disappointed with the results.
