Nah, it was so unnecessary and that's part of why the series was so lackluster
If Sam got the Shield at the end of Endgame, and showed up as Cap in his next appearance, no one would bat an eye, its the expected trajectory of his story
But It'll be more vital once John Walker and Eli Bradley start making their presence felt elsewhere
Admittedly, I haven't watched Falcon and the Winter Soldier, so I can't comment on its quality, but I will agree that yes. The audience can say 'Sam got a shield in Endgame, so if he's Captain America in the next movie, then maybe he got a suit in between films' without having seen the show.
Whether anything else in that series is relevant to the film, I don't know, but yeah, I think we can give the audience enough credit to just accept Sam getting a suit after the shield if they haven't watched the series.
