No it is not.
The hint to increase version numbers on re-submission is a weaker
'should' or 'might', not a strong 'must'.
I have uploaded a few packages to CRAN over the last two decades, and
like others have made mistakes requiring iterations. I have not once
increased a version number.
That's as may be but IMHO (and AFAICS) it never hurts to increment the
version number, even if you've only corrected a trivial glitch.
cheers,
Rolf
