The roofer who does not install drip edge Will eventually lose their good rating. On the gable ends it is absolutely necessary. Code requires it should be over the gutters as well. Anyone who says that drip edge is a necessary has obviously never repaired rotten facia board. Water can wick backwards and under the shingle, Especially on the gable ends! The shingles should have an inch and a quarter overhang.
