Exertion is an attempt to add a small amount of realism and challenge, and shift the balance of play a little more toward survival considerations such as maintaining access to food and water. You don't absolutely need to eat and drink to survive, but you do need to eat and drink to function at full efficiency.
Exertion tracks player activity and food and water consumption. Starvation and dehydration cause fatigue (reducing running speed and jump height) but do not kill the player. Healing isn't instantaneous when food is consumed, but occurs over time if the player is well-fed and hydrated. Being poisoned can cause minor damage and major food and water loss over time, as the player vomits or dry heaves.
