No, you don't, but there are apparently other reasons why MTP is used by Android. I read somewhere it was developed for the Zune originally. With USB MS you see part of the filesystem. With USB MTP you don't. USB Networking, like reMarkable uses, is simpler and only one step up from a USB Serial port, by adding TCP/IP. My understanding is that Fire OS is essentially a slightly customised Android.
