Not relevant to what he suggested.

No. The REQUIRE lines (etc) just order the rc.d scripts, they have
no impact on what is started, one way or the other, just when you have
stuff enabled, the order in which they're started.
As I understand it the suggestion was just to make explicit what
happens anyway, which should do no harm, and might just avoid
later problems if someone updates things and the current ordering
