The stroke order is important as soon as you need to look up Kanji in a dictionary or write them on paper. Based on the stroke order you can still recognize which Kanji is meant even if the handwriting is awful, according to a japanese friend of mine. The other thing is that looking them up becomes quite difficult without an online dictionary. I doubt that Gsimenas writes that often on paper, though xD
