Wall framing question: stud spacing between openings

I'm framing up a non-load-bearing wall that has two closet doors on it, close together (the king studs for the two openings are 13" apart). Unfortunately, they are aligned such that one of the 16" OC common studs would fall within that gap. In fact, it would only be 1/2" away from the left king stud, so not even anywhere near...

Personally I would include it just so that the next homeowner doesn't curse you when they go to drill something into an expected stud that isn't there.

Try threading a wood screw into the hollow pin until it grabs, and pull it out while twisting with a pair of pliers.
