Crankshaft Position Sensor fault

Whats this ive seen in a couple threads about the CPU having to relearn after installing a new crankshaft position sensor.
the posts and info ive found is a little old. Wonder if anyone has more recent experience etc.. The car faulted the po335 again today. I unhooked the battery cleared the code with the Torque app and the car started and drove fine and I was able to get home. i got the part the other day even though i cleared it that time also just in case it happened again (like it did today)

the machining from block to block and the mass production of the sensors can be off causing the pcm to see a different crank angle vs new sensor

Could this relearn cause damage if not done?
