Not necessarily. When I had my EMT license way back in the day, I participated in several simulated mass casualty incidents. The goal is to teach people to triage properly, help those you can, and to coordinate efforts with other first responders. If your incident command doesn't know what they're doing, it can be a real shit show. Good to practice in a controlled environment with a proper debrief at the end to identify things you can improve rather than trying to learn all that after a tornado hits or something.
