Let's say you're OCRing a contract. Odds are good that almost every part of the contract is there for an important reason, though it may not matter to you. How many errors can you tolerate in the terms of a contract that governs i.e. your home, or the car you drive to work, or your health insurance coverage? Do you want to take a gamble on those terms that could - in the worst case - result in getting kicked out of your apartment or having to pay a massive medical bill yourself?
The important question is which parts are inaccurate. If it's messing up names and numbers but is 99.9% accurate for everything else, you can just go back and check all the names and numbers at the end. But if the whole thing is only 90% accurate, you now either recheck the whole document or you risk a 'must' turning into a 'may' in a critical place that undermines the whole document.
