Well that might apply for most sound effects but things get way more critical when editing dialogue. You want to judge correctly for the right and wrong channels/takes. What seems to be matching fairly ok in a modest listening environment can literally fall apart on stage or better speaker systems. And thats not just theory. I've heard things dude!
