Code for Nail Plates

I'm just curious about code requirements for nail plates. I've already had my electrical rough-in inspection and passed, yet I had no plates installed yet. Completely forgot about them, actually. Nothing was said. Does that mean I don't need them?

I've got 12/3 NM running horizontally through wall studs as well as various cables through holes in the top plates.

Even if not required, are they best practice for insurance against drywall nails?
