No, but it's a sensible security measure. Anything to make it harder.
That's the thing, it's not actually a security measure. Security through obscurity is not security. It can provide false security impression that is more harmful in my opinion.
Having source maps can encourage proper security practices. Which, in my books, very much outweighs any security benefits of hiding them.
