AIUI, the main purpose of the BA tags is to stop the passenger asking for a priority tag; at least at LHR T5, the priority tag does nothing to get the bag into a priority can because the baggage system can read the bar codes but can't read the priority tag, and humans are not involved in routing the bag to the priority can.
