I can't claim to be the expert here. So, I look forward to additional input.
My view is that for all but the most sophisticated benchresters, annealing is more of a remedy than prevention.
It restores the properties of good brass cases that should have been present with new factory brass although not all factory brass is created equal. ...Lapua being the best overall that I've ever used.
Each time you anneal, the brass will again work harden with excessive and repeated pressures and resizing. The more you work your brass, the more frequently you'll need to anneal it.
I may be overly conservative, but my goal is to never need to anneal.
