indeed. What is the point you're trying to make? It seems pretty obvious studying some Opening Theory is essential but I dont get what you're trying to say to us, to me. 🤔 would be nice to know what you're getting at?!

"You have to learn each opening in order to become a master at chess. "
This is not true.
You can become a master without learning any opening at all,
however, you cannot become a master without study of endgames.

But actually grandmasters have a better opening knowledge and learn most of the openings but not all openings.
