What's a fmg? Anyway, I'd waive that right because it allows the person writing the letter to be totally honest without the fear that you're going to see the letter later on and feel hurt if there's something not totally positive. There's really no reason for you to read your letter of recommendation. And a totally honest letter is the best for the writer to write. Whoever is getting that letter will want to see flaws and good things about you, not that you're perfect.

Well, you don't have to... but what reason do you have NOT to have it waived? You see, when your right to see your recommendation letters is not waived, those letters will "lose" its power to those who review your application. The reviewers will doubt the recommendation because they are not sure whether the person who gave that recommendation is saying all those good things about you because they know that you might want to see it in the future...
Letters with waived rights are better because reviewers tend to think that the person who gave the recommendation was HONEST in their assessment of you because they know you will NEVER be able to read it in the future...
Hope I was of help.
Good luck!
