Yes and no... Occasionally someone will have an Nvidia-only desktop (or similar old laptop). Or they may have a very new laptop that the Linux kernel doesn't support properly yet. In such a case, using 'nomodeset' can be a life saver. Especially given the spotty stability and hardware support of the nouveau (modesetting) driver. Sometimes you just have to turn it off.
