Default Is a EGT needed?

i have a wideband o2 sensor in my car.
the egt tells me if im running lean /rich by temp readings.
the wideband tells me if im running rich or lean by afr readings.

it seems like they are 2 different means to get the same reading.

well my question is, since i have the wideband o2 sensor do i really need the egt???

It'll be a nice addition if you have the extra $$$...or spend the extra $$$ on more mods..
