NW Central Ohio
.....I'd like to see the dry dirt that a disc could compact, that would be some trick. You get in trouble with a disc if it's too wet, not dry like your conditions. Get it level. Do it any way you can. There's no reason to break a front axle in a pig hole just because someone wants to spend more time assuring their dew worms are happy than make a profit. I've no-tilled for probably better than 25 years...and there are still some fields I cuss myself for not getting the dead furrows worked out of before beginning no-till. If you're only going 2-3" deep, you're not destroying soil structure, you're mixing your residue and humus up, which decomposes it a little faster. Big deal...plant a couple years of cover crops after your harvest...and the humus will probably be right back to where you started. Sometimes the comments of the radicals just don't make much sense.
