By choosing the right names for a function or class a lot of jumping around can be prevented. Most IDEs also have a feature (including key combination) to show the documentation of the method/function. The only reason that remains is when you doubt the correctness of the method and need to look at its definition.

The only and critical reason - skipping the check will net you tons of debugging all the time because hidden assumptions are often not documented. (or otherwise visible)
