I have never felt the need to scoop anything out of my ears. And I don't see anything visible from the outside of the ear that would need scooping. I assume any wax further in the ear probably belongs there as defensive barrier.
I never do either, until I grab a pair of in ear headphones and recoil in horror at the globs of ear wax that they yank out. I have actually killed apple earbuds like that from clogging up the mesh barriers with wax. Regular maintenance keeps that from happening.
