Default I have a newbie question

I was just watching a Leah Day video about FMQ where she mentioned hiding the beginning and ending threads. How important is hiding them rather than taking a backstitch to secure? My quilts will never be in competition, I just don't want them to unravel because I simply back-stitched. Is hiding the thread more secure? And how, exactly, does one hide them? She suggested using an open eye needle and popping them inside the quilt, is that what most quilters do? Thanks
