Pre-addressing these problems won't make shy person instantly not shy. It wont make controlling person not controlling nor change someone who is not self aware or don't think much about others.
While these exist in workplace too, setup is different, goals are different and dynamic is completely different. And you can usually find yourself non-group setup with own accountability and tasks.
Most important difference is that in school you are supposed to learn and this turns whole thing to waste of time where you don't learn - and then you miss stuff you was supposed to learn.

Of course. But it at least sets the expectation that these things need to be talked about. Otherwise students won't know what to do, or even realize what's happening until after the work division has been decided.
Not just that, but a competent instructor should have checked in with the groups to make sure this sort of thing doesn't happen.
