I didn't say it was "needed". I was speculating that you can squeeze more performance from a given shooter by doing so.

Why not just impart as much energy as you can with each wheel?

If that's your goal, then the first wheel should be driven slower than the second.
There's a wheel speed above which the exit velocity of the frisbee from that wheel
actually starts decreasing, presumably due to excessive slipping. The first wheel reaches this point before the second one does because the frisbee speed coming into the first wheel is so much slower than for the second wheel.
