As j.vjplus said, not required BUT you do want to continue to practice them. So, while you can move forward, do not leave them behind.
Back when I started (a long time ago) learning scales, I found my favorites and left others I didn't prefer behind. I handicapped myself after a time because I didn't grow my skills, I replaced what I learned with stuff I preferred. Dumb mistaked.
Build and expand but make sure that you are circling back to stuff you've learned before.
