You have a 180. You have a 180. You have a 180. As long as you haven't killed anyone or cowrote "Friday" by Rebecca Black, nothing can hurt your application.
P.S. Congrats by the way! Enjoy HYS

If there is a legitimate reason for why you scored lower the first time then go ahead and write, however not writing one will not hurt you. congrats on the great score!

Humblebrag?
I didn't write an addendum for a similar (but smaller) jump, and no one has seemed to mind. I went the "The thicker the application, the thicker the applicant" route, since I already had a DS.

And since adcomms are notorious for hating fat people this is a good strategy. OP I had a similar jump and didn't write one and things worked out just fine.

169 to 179 and I didn't write one. No problems so far.

your addendum should read "I got a 180, bitch, now let me in"
