The drain pan thing seems to only be code in certain places. Over here they just need the foam block at the bottom.

While not not necessarily required by code, a drain pan + a leak sensor in the pan are useful in mitigating potential disasters.

Doesn't have to be fancy either, they make smart leak sensors or basic ones that are just ear piercingly loud.
