i say they are a must (or offset keys)
give you the ability to have your cam timing stop on and not too the nearest tooth!

a must

it does depend on how far out your cam timing is on standard pulleys if you'll notice a difference! If the head has ever been skimmed or other things!

if the cams have been changed for aftermarket jobbies then its silly not too run accurate cam timing! can make a massive different to lag and torque curve

make sure you get the ones with the markings on, as some come without and they are a pain in the butt!!!!!!
