Is There Any Value In Putting An RYS Stack On An Authority Site With Curated Content?

In the 218th episode of Semantic Mastery's weekly Hump Day Hangouts (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5LqUXtuOXI), one participant asked if there is a value in putting an RYS stack when using curated content to build an authority site.

The exact question was:

Hi Bradley, Guys,

1. If I am building an Authority site for a niche using curated content, is there any value in putting an RYS stack on it? Does an RYS stack help the long tail rankings that I'm shooting for with an Authority site that builds up a lot of content, or is it something that is mainly of benefit for Local SEO?
