"The overwhelming majority of women with HPV will not develop cervical cancer. Cervical cancer is an extremely rare complication of a common infection.
The spontaneous resolution of HPV is common.
Most women who test positive for high-risk HPV will not be diagnosed with cervical cancer or a precancerous condition upon further evaluation.
The purpose of a Pap smear is to detect HPV-related lesions, including cervical cancer, and their precursors."

I'm guessing avoiding HPV itself would be considered a benefit to most women, whether or not they would have ended up with Cervical Cancer from it.
