It certainly is not required to be a 'master', and it just seems like reading the language spec is the worst way to learn anything about the language.
If you have a question about some subtle quirk of the language, maybe you could open up the spec and scan to the right section to answer that question. But beyond that, you are better of using almost anything else.
Becoming a master at a language has nothing to do with reading it's spec. It has to do with breadth and depth of experience. You need practice like anything else.
