Is the diesel cooler really necessary?

Would have thought if it was not it would have either gone completely via Project Drive or just from those countries deemed to be 'cold'.

AFAIK the fuel gets warm and when it returns to the tank goes through the cooler for safety reasons ie make sure no chance of it combusting

Also if it was to condense in the tank the water would mix with the fuel and could cause issues

Planning is an unnatural process, much better to just get on with things, that way failure comes as a complete surprise instead of being preceeded by a period of worry and doubt

I had read somewhere that someone had bypassed the cooler due to it leaking.

The diesel comes back out of the high pressure pump quite hot. It loses some of this heat through the cooler. The rest of the heat goes into the fuel tank and stops the fuel from gelling in really cold weather.
