These terms "stock recovery" have become confusing to a novice like me, as i was led believe that taking the "recovery img" file from an offficial rom that is also installed on your device is stock recovery. When i say this in this case its very official rom i flashed myself that is currently running on my phone. Hence i assumed that there is no need to extract the recovery image from my device.

In saying that my intention for wanting twrp was to flash superuser to root and then create swap partition to speed up my device. However since magisk has already rooted this device my objectives are met.

Did followup on the link you gave, and on previous marshmallow build i did have to flash twrp twice which was a relief to know as a common issue.
