I quietly took the form, which, of course, I didn't need.
Seriously, is there any harm in filling one out as a backup in case the kiosk(s) is/are down?
I don't think taking 45 seconds out of a >8 hour trans-oceanic flight to fill out the form as a backup is going to hurt, let alone simply taking one.
If you're adamant about feeling that you don't need the form, just tell the FA you got a form already. No reason to "tangle" with an FA and make the flight that much more awkward/uncomfortable for the FA and/or people sitting around you.
