Yes, they are necessary. On my first check-out dive for OW, I inspected the tank & o-ring just like we were taught in class. I called the instructor over and asked if the small nick in the o-ring on the rental tank was going to be a problem. He said let's turn it on and find out. Sure enough, it popped the o-ring out. :11: Luckily, this was at a very busy quarry and we were able to get a spare from another diver.
Needless to say, the first thing I bought for my save-a-dive kit was a pack of o-rings.
