newer beacons are faster, less prone to spiking, and a bit more user friendly.
IF you practice with a T1, you're likely just fine & it's no big deal upgrading, but wouldn't hurt either!
Keep in mind, when you upgrade & then subsequently sell your old beacon... you're likely supplying someone who wouldn't have otherwise bought one possibly, so you're contributing to the greater good! (yeah, that's how I justified my S1 anyhow!!!
)
