Congratulations on your new bike! I hope you have many happy miles on her!
On kickstands, they add weight, and the vast majority of roadies do not use them. That said, I do have one on my Bike Friday, but it's more of a utility/touring bike, and I added it before a loaded tour where I'd have four panniers on the bike. I didn't want to have to lie it down on those! I left it on afterwards b/c we do a lot of shopping stops and rest stops in rural areas with no place to lean the bike, and we're carrying stuff anyway, so the extra weight of a kickstand is not significant. I didn't have one on my carbon road bike, which I have since sold.
BTW, is that a noseless saddle? I have honestly never known anyone who could use one -- do you like it?
