No.
Acers will be quite happy in an ericaceous compost.
Plants that do not grow in soils and contain lime are called ericaceous plants. Ericaceous plants include camellia, Pieris, rhododendron, Japanese maples.
"Ericaceous" plants. No, Tomatoes are not ericaceous
Rhododendrons, azaleas, and camellias are all ericaceous.

Yes, Magnolia Stellata needs ericaceous compost, but at the same time, no, it does not. The flowering plant in question prefers a slightly acidic to neutral pH level even though proper drainage and lighting let it survive in a variety of soils, including heavy clay. It therefore will have need of the acidic-loving, lime-hating compost in less desirable environments (where an ericaceous compost fertilizer helps), such as slightly alkaline (sweet) soils.
Yes, Buddleia needs the ericaceous type if compost is to be used. The butterfly bush in question numbers among the world's woody plants which favor a more acidic soil -- in this case, pH levels of 5.5 - 6.5 -- even though adequate space and sunlight as well as good drainage will support growth in neutral soils. Buddleia will grow in any reasonable soil, it is not ericaceous.

Yes. Japanese acers need some protection from the wind.
no, acers are better. Top selling laptop company in Africa
Most acers are sturdy enough to grow without the help of worms. Of course, earthworm activity helps all plants to grow but acers are no more (nor less) in need of such help.
Maple family members grow more comfortably in ericaceous compost. The trees in question (Acer spp) tolerate the more acidic pH levels realized through applications of ericaceous (heath and heather family-related) organic amendments, fertilizers, and mulches.
