Not at all. If you check out the pics you'll see that the trichomes are perfectly intact even after boiling for a few minutes. The reason why is the oil is not water soluble, meaning they do not dissolve in water.
Yes bring your pot to a rolling boil and then dump your trim in. Let it cook for...

It makes for a better final product if you do, because you'll end up with water that you'll have to scrape off of your butter if you choose not to dry. I have a good dehydrator that I use, really speeds up the process. But you can use your oven as well, just turn it on very low (>200°F) and dry...
