How important are standoffs? (lemmy.world)

I recently built a keyboard (previously I had only added switches and keycaps), and in the box, I see some standoffs. From what I can tell, these are optional? It seems some people use them and others do not depending on their plate material. Is this true, or are they absolutely needed?
