Always hard-reset after a flash.
It's not a new step, it's a replacement for the RUU message which tells you to soft-reset. Not everyone's device ends up clearing the storage after a flash so you have a chance of old storage files remaining. You can end up with dead shortcuts, missing SMS sender, or a bunch of other side effects.
