Why is accurate time important with these modes?

I know Eric moderated this topic so I will be brief, but all comments 
so far danced around the reason you need accurate time for WSJT modes.
These are synchronous digital modes to both stations computers need 
to know when the start of the message begins.

I use a simple cheap GPS with USB dongle plugged directly into my 
computer and run BktTimeSync by IZ2BKT.  You can choose either NTP 
time servers or take the time from the GPS without needing internet connection.

Write me off list for details.
