Cell size question for reprojecting a raster

Question

I am using ArcGIS Pro 'Project Raster' to convert a projected raster to GCS. The raster is a crop data layer using: USA Contiguous Albers Equal Area Conic USGS Version with a spheroid of GRS 1980 and datum of NAD83. It has a resolution of 30meters. I would like to re-project this raster to World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS84).

My question is for the Project Raster cell size field, do I enter '30' (30 meters) -Or- leave the cell size field blank and run the tool.

Thank you for your time,

Chris

Thanks so much for your quick response. I'm working with some older python code. I agree, things should be left as projected. This will change in the near future. I really appreciate your explanation--helps clarify things as I learn and grow in GIS.
