  1. Outline levels are important because they are one of the options that the table of contents can be built from.

This means that some paragraphs will have their assigned outline level scrambled, resulting in problems with the table of contents. Saving with document map open makes the situation worse. The Recommendation Avoid using document map. However, if you do use it, do not save your document with the map open and check that the outline leveling has not been scrambled for your paragraphs.
