Even though I set minReplicaCount > 1, does KEDA still poll according to the pollingInterval?

Let's say I don't want zero scaling, so I set the minReplicaCount value to 1. In this case, does KEDA still continue sending requests to the scalers according to the pollingInterval?
If so, doesn't that mean unnecessary requests?

HPA already takes over and handles the polling itself when there is at least one pod running.

If zero scaling is not going to be used, is there any reason for KEDA to send additional requests on top of that?
