Master cone fit and the tug-back sensation

Doctor, is it necessary to obtain tug-back when using a bioceramic root canal sealer?

Translated version of the Turkish original

I am among those who think it is necessary; others may of course think differently, but when there is a tug-back effect, we are using gutta-percha with a better apical fit. If we cannot obtain tug-back, filling the canal with the bioceramic sealer–gutta-percha combination is not ideal either. In that situation, a powder–liquid MTA combination is a more ideal option
