Correct me if I'm wrong, someone, but that's what I've learned.

Cheers all!

In general, that is true. However, some really hard steels sometimes will lead me to drop down to a 600 or 800 chosera for bevel setting even without any edge repair. I've got them so I use them and they make the job faster, but they are not essential.
