Yes, there is a need.
With low quality signals, I have seen MPE packets delivered with bits
error (shown by the MPE CRC32) with no indication error given from the
hardware (in mpeg2 transport packet).
This could be poorly designed hardware, but I had this with
different chips, either with DVB-S and DVB-T

So I would definitely advocate for a CRC32.
