Keep them. You can use them in the Nadir on the ~10% Persuasive challenge on the Rosers card, which gives you a Searing Enigma on success.
You may also want to use them on the "one's public" card, which is another high level persuasive challenge that is, I think, at best ~60% even when you're maxed on Persuasive. That one gives 2 confident smiles on success, as well as lots of other stuff, so it's worth using one.

Not contributing to your question but just making a related remark.
I'm a relatively low-level player but Confident Smiles seem to be dropped a whole lot more than their Shadowy or Watchful counterparts. As I remember also card of romances past used to drop them but that seems to have changed. Nonetheless they pile up fast.

I think the bias might actually be lore-based. Think about it; what benefits the Bazaar most? The production of love stories and closer enmeshment of people in the Fifth city. Persuasive and Watchful, therefore, are encouraged. I think that's also why Author is the only 2nd-tier profession that doesn't require notability.
