You guys are repeating the same old flawed argument:

"Uh, I know reading is important, but it ain't required!"

No kidding. Neither are 4-part chords required. Or knowing substitutions. Or knowing how to play lines over any given set of changes...etc...etc...etc... Nothing is truly *required*, but if you want gaping holes in your overall musical knowledge, knock yourself out.
