Yes repairing or replacing will make the car more saleable, however a chip or crack in a windscreen is not automaticaly a fail point, my car has been through 2 MOTs with a 30mm crack in the windscreen, it passed because it is less than 40mm and not in the field of vision, in my case it is not repairable so no point doing anything till it get worse.

I just assumed the crack would be a decent size as the poster was asking about it.
You are correct about the 40mm but also states

In addition to this area of windscreen, MOT guidelines require any chip or crack within the remainder of the area swept by the wipers to be contained within a diameter of 40mm.

I'm surprised your crack has lasted through 2 MOTs and not got any bigger
