The main skill that roller riding improves is riding on rollers. It's kind of handy to learn how to look from one side to the other without changing your line, but you can learn that on the road, too. The best way to learn group riding skills is to ride with groups. Pedaling efficiency and smoothness via rollers is a red herring. But riding rollers doesn't hurt anything so if you want to, go ahead.
