Q1) Why are you not flashing recovery directly ?
A) Becuase Its risky (very low chance of flashing failing from fastboot ),So
first we boot this twrp file temporarily and backup all important partitions
When it is clear recovery is working fine , we copy the twrp.img and flash it from twrp to make it permanent .

 

[RMX3370]

Q2) Why are you not flashing magisk patched image ?
Ans) Becuase Its risky (the patched boot image you got may not be of your model or software version which will cause bootloop , SO
we trust in magisk to use our device boot.img to create a patched boot.img with magisk support , then we reflash magisk from magisk App to confirm it .

Is there any way to flash stock rom if twrp is installed?

This post says "for all models" but your bootloader unlocker post is for Indian model?
Just asking. It can cause misunderstanding.

This guide will work for all variants of GT NEO 2 , however the unlocking guide is for Indian Variant only .
So if you somehow managed to unlock Non-Indian Model of RMX3370 you can safely follow this guide (no liabilities of OP ) to install TWRP then root your device

Why do you want to flash stock ROM ?
If it is booting problem you can read this guide
If you just want to reset you have to first remove magisk then from TWRP do factory reset from WIPE section.
However you can try this RollBack ZIP for Indian Variant of Realme GT NEO 2

This is my first realme device.I would prefer to keep a stock rom to flash incase any boot loop. Not decided to flash twrp permanently. i hope i can boot to stock recovery and flash rollback package to be in stock..Will it work?

Are you able to boot into ROM ?
What have you done before this started happening ?
coz that happens when rui gets corrupted and is unable to mount /data and If unable to boot into saystem then the only solution is to do flash stock boot.IMG and wipe all data
