No you do not HAVE to use a AAA as your 5th cell, but there are some good reasons for sticking with all the same batteries.
1) AAA batterys are mutch smaller than a AA. (Where to fit an extra AA? It is hard enough to cram an extra AAA.)
2) You want to have all the same type batteries so that you get even drain. If you use a AA with the AAA the AA will still have plenty of power when the AAA are dead.
3) AA batteries weigh alot more than a AAA battery does.
