Is it necessary to use a Reaction Rod when swapping out Rails?
I’ve never seen any point to a reaction rod at all.

I love my reaction rod, like mentioned it is quick and easy. For disassembly of questionable uppers I use a clam shell.

Necessary? No, though they do work as advertised. As do clam shell-type setups.
Reaction Rod, Yes. Giessele's, No.
Easy and simple to use, with a bench vice.
Why spend $100.00 when you can spend $60.00?? Wheeler's Engineering Action Rod works. So unless your a Professional Gunplumber / Armorer save your money.

I’ve heard people say that the G tool is better a few times for that reason, but I don’t get it. The MI tool has four flats. You can quickly and easily turn it in 90 degree increments by loosening the vice jaws. And I only use it right side up and upside down, never sideways, because I’ve never felt a need to use it sideways.
But MI’s URR is definitely the better tool for barrel nuts and muzzle devices. Which is the main thing one needs this type of tool for.
