Maybe a different approach.....
How much does a front sprocket cost and can you do it yourself? If it's maybe £15/20 for a JT or similar and it increases the life of the chain significantly it might be cost effective to change it. If you need to pay to have it done then probably not cost effective.
It's visibly worn, and it tends to give the chain a harder time once it gets significantly out of shape. The refinement also tends to start suffering.
Just a thought.
