The venerable KC seems to get by fine without sidearm, and I've always thought that I do too. I just throw anhyzer on my RHBH shots when I want a right turn... and usually use more understable drivers. I guess I figure time spent on learning sidearm would be time away from perfecting backhand... the old "a jack of all trades is a master of none."
However, Scott Stokely's book seems pretty adament that as the game advances, you won't be competitive without a decent sidearm shot. I do feel at a decent disadvantage off the tee when shooting treeline dogleg rights against my friends who have nice sidearm shots, but I can usually make up the ground with solid mids and putts and still get par.
So, what's the verdict among players around here?
