This is a valid point for anyone who prints largely with PLA. And if that's all you use then you wont need a dryer. The biggest reason to use a dryer is for hygroscopic plastics like TPU, PA, PVA, PC, and PETG to some extent. PA absorbs moisture so quickly from the environment that it is necessary to dry it before printing. Other plastics like PC, TPU, and PETG absorb moisture from the environment and a much slower rate meaning that you can usually get away without a filament dryer if you use them up within a reasonable time period. PLA is it's own animal. Now there are so many blends that each type/brand can behave differently. I've used 3 year old Sunlu filament that was stored in open air without any issues but some pure OG PLA from Hatchbox or Monoprice turns so brittle that it is literally impossible to print with because it snaps as the extruder pulls it in. In that case a filament dryer *can* sometimes recover a brittle roll. You can also use your home oven to do basically the same thing if your careful with temperatures but it's definitely more tricky getting just the right temp for an extended period of time on the ovens I've used. A filament dryer simplifies the process.

Depends on where you live/how humid it is, and what type of filament you're using.
If your area is relatively dry, and you only print PLA, maybe you don't need one.
Add in PETG, and lots of times a spool will arrive so wet even in the sealed packaging that it can't be used without 10+ hours in a dryer.
Don't even attempt printing with Nylon without a dryer.

Another cheap method to dry the filament is using the heated bed on the 3D printer with a cardboard box covering the filament.
