I agree with this. I have never found it to be the case that a port, a nice name and the protocol must be in /etc/services for a process to bind to a port.

A process can bind to a port, if it has permissions, without opening /etc/services.

... at least this has always been my experience.

Having said that, it certainly does not hurt to add your requirements to /etc/services, but I don't think that will solve your problem; hence I agree with the "someone" in the quote above.
