No, maybe it wasn't necessary but it certainly is more comfortable and effecient... In some particular places I used 10+ layers on a single scene. On many of these scenes using track motion, where the layer itself moves, was necessary. Technically yes I could fit all that track motion in the same layer but it'd be all crammed up and too confusing. On those scenes where track motion was not used, I did reuse those layers.

I can't understand how can people use so many layers, okay track motion, but that much?? wouldn't it be easier to make it with AE then? :P I can imagine using about 5 layers but omg, my timelines usually consist of 1-4 layers maybe, so nah :P I would be lost in all those layers xD

that depends... For some of my videos I used well over 300 layers (mind you I used multiple compositions (something like 50) so that is a count of all the layers across them all...

I can stay organised on one or two layers. I'm really good at keeping track of stuff plus that, plus I've only gone past using like 3 layers once. I edit very simple :3.

I usually have 2-3 layers for editing, with another layer for credits and other text/effects.
