Some people seem quite animated about non-squared buildings in OSM....can anyone tell me why it matters so much? because 'accuracy'?

A possible (slightly contentious) view might be that:

 * some people have been complaining about the quality of HOT additions
   - sometimes unfounded, because it's more a "new user" thing thanĀ  a
   "HOT" thing per se.
 * one of the complaints - perhaps because it's an "easy to find"
   problem - is unsquared (or unrounded) buildings
 * HOT therefore make a big deal about squaring buildings

I've never been hugely bothered by it personally - people can easily square them up later if that's appropriate.
