I'd cube because you have a big racing advantage and a big positional advantage. Black's ragged board and the absence of builders means that we will not have any problems entering and recirculating any hit checkers for a long time to come, while our own hits have some power because of our offensive structure. So black would need to hit repeatedly, and better avoids being hit.

This is a very big pass, but I have seen stranger things taken.

Technically white may be too good, because for the time being, white's advantages are quite static and there is little volatility. So you could play on, and use the cube later. But I'd be hoping for some takes, because the position is unusual, and some may overrate the bunch of defensive points without realizing how bad the front position is exactly.
