If you take a look at the Order of Gamplay, "check pilot stress" is a very specific step, not just a general instruction.

The check pilot stress step means you add or remove stress if you did a red or green maneuver respectively. If you're already stressed and do a white maneuver, you will be stressed when trying to do your action so will not be able to perform any action.

What it means is you can do a red maneuver or fly through debris and then take an action before acquiring your stress. There's also a cool combo where you use Push The Limit after a green maneuver to do two actions, acquire a stress, and then lose the stress from doing a green maneuver (similar to the interaction with Push The Limit with either BB-8 or Advanced Sensors)
