For me egg shells don't compost fast enough. Unless I crush them really small before adding, they are still distinct pieces by the time all the rest of the compost has long turned into nice black stuff.

Probably just adds a little good texture. But yeah, it might be a waste to keep them in the pile taking up space when they can also just be added to the soil directly. IDK if they add much to the process of decomposition.
