Learning cursive is important if for no other reason than to have access to the extant texts written in cursive --- Turkey is an example of a similar problem, having changed from from writing in Arabic to Latin, people now find it necessary to hire a specialist to transcribe old family letters and records --- granted it won't be quite so difficult, but it would be tragic if the next generation can't readily read the letters of their antecedents.
