I'd say, Sandro's comment explains the reason:

"In JTS GeometryFactory? is a class while CoordinateSequenceFactory?
is an interface. In JTS neither GeometryFactory? nor
CoordinateSequenceFactory? have a destroy function."

C API offers GEOSCoordSeq_destroy for this purpose.

IMO, yes, whenever you have access to "named destructor", call it.
