Anti-squeal shims & paste?

I notice in this photo that the OEM pads have anti-squeal shims but the Pagids do not. When I did pad replacements as a kid back in the 80s, I'd normally transfer the shims to the new pads, and use some new paste.

Would you normally use shims/paste with a track pad?

(I'm asking because I had some Endless MX72 pads fitted to my M4 and after multiple attempts to re-bed, they still squeal like a stuck pig when coming to a standstill with warm brakes - wondering whether it's worth taking them out and re-fitting with extra anti-squeal)
