Am I right in thinking you don't actually need one of these if you're not planning on ripping 4k UHD discs?

I have a Pioneer drive that is region locked to region 2 for DVD but the software I use seems to bypass this anyway when ripping region 1 DVD and region A blu-rays to ISO format.

Depending on the age of the Pioneer, it may already be unlocked, or it may be blocked against 4K UHD.

I’m not ripping UHD at all and don’t plan to. I currently rip dvd and bluray and my software seems to bypass and region restrictions so I don’t think I need the functionality. Was just checking really.
