Are these necessary, good practice, or just nice to have?

Those two PTFs are included with C3298710. And FWiW:

"... in my cursory review, I see there are already supersedes; at least one, including fixes to previously added functionality, so if applying PTFs that are not on a cumulative, then might just as well get the latest <ed: for each>. Note: When viewing the PTF, a "superseded by" link will appear, and then that more recent PTF can be viewed for what that PTF and what superseded PTFs it includes."

Links for viewing each of those PTFs, as described above; the link to the latest supersede per the "Superseded by" is included for each:
