Do we know if statins are useful in prevention of minor cardiovascular issues?

I've noticed the internet is quite austere with statins, saying that the NNT is too high for primary prevention. To which it seems so. But this is about death, strokes and heart attacks.

Do we know if they are more effective in preventing "minor" atherosclerotic diseases, like stable angina, claudication, erectile dysfunction etc.

So, maybe there, with such data, statins would appear much more effective.
