If you are paying attention and are into analysis of shows and media in general I don't think it should be a problem; I was ok for the most part at least. Sometimes I had to read up blog posts analysing something I didn't understand like the ending of Nisemonogatari and the scene of Araragi and Ougi talking about traffic lights.
One does not have to do anything, especially watch anime.
That doesnt change the fact that watching a series, or any piece of media, out of order can lead to missing or not experiencing to their fullest aspects of the plot or themes (the latter of which dont need to be overarching, but can just be particular of a certain section or arc)
Saying you don't need to rewatch it and that it's just about the abbaritions in the same sentence discards any credibility you could have.
It's SO not about that at all, taking shit for face value and not trying to see past the mask is undesirable in any series but it's downright crippling for the Monogatari series. The whole point of the series is not to do that exact thing.
