You don't HAVE to, but I'd say it isn't the best practise, because you've gotta get back sometime, anyway.
So I'd do it before the corners so you get longer time looking at the case. After I make the first block though, I made sure I learnt so that I did no rotations whatsoever (apart from going off at a tangent). I'm currently reshuffling my step 2 and trying to find shortcuts. I've been doing the 1x2x2 - pair and insert for a while now, and I'm looking at some alternative things. I don't really want to learn F2L because I like being a pure roux solver :) but I might learn a few of the tricky ones. It's all pretty easy, anyway... Starting to get really good recognition and execution on CMLL now. Although, it's slowing my non-mathcing block solving down because I have to learn the new cases to recognise. GOnna learn that big 69 diagram table at some point....
