On some level, yes, knowing what shape an G chord is on a guitar is knowing some theory in the exact same way that being able to get hello world functioning in a language is necessary to starting to understand the broader elements of computer science.

Just because something is the Nth lowest first step does not mean it's not a step.

The theory is true, but no theory will make you perform quite like a legendary recording artist.

Yeah, it'd be nice if Berklee funk sounded good.
