Answer
Yes - you need this type of preparation to prevent the fried steak from becoming too chewy. It should almost melt in your mouth.
No - some people prefer a less-pulverized piece of meat. Cube steaks tend to be cheaper, inferior cuts "partially chewed" to camouflage some of the toughness. A good quality round steak or other cut is preferable to many connoisseurs. If you use round steak (or some other cut), the final product will retain less of the breading and be more meaty than that made with cube steaks.
