Nah. Similar to gradients, you can supply two positions for a single stop, so a grammatical requirement like that would prevent authors from writing some otherwise reasonable things. (It would allow `linear(0 0%, 0 100%)`, but disallow the identical-meaning `linear(0 0% 100%)`.)
However, the text as currently written does fail if you provide a single stop, whether you give it two %s or not. ("create a linear easing function" explicitly fails if there is only a single stop, regardless of whether it's doubled or not; "calculate linear easing output" implicitly fails with an OOB access if there's only a single stop (not doubled).
The first failure should get fixed; there's nothing wrong it conceptually. The second should also be fixed, just to avoid grammar oddities, the same as how we just resolved to allow single-stop gradients; there's a trivial behavior for it. I'll propose some edits.
