There's absolutely no reason to do that (replace just one string at a time).
Internet myth.
In fact, I've stored guitars for 10 years by cutting off the strings and loosening the truss rod until it no longer put any tension on the neck. At the end of that time I cleaned it all up, put some mineral oil on the fretboard overnight, wiped it all down, put on new strings and did a complete setup on it (including truss rod). Waited a day, made any necessary adjustments and it's been fine ever since.
