What does " Cancel check-in and exit" actually do?

Just a Friday afternoon curiosity - does anyone actually have experience of what this functionality on the app (and presumably the website) actually does in practice? Knowing BA, the answer is probably one of

a) nothing
b) does cancel check-in, but also results in locking your booking so only the airport can do anything, or
c) cancels check-in, and also your entire booking ;-)

Having checked in and downloaded boarding card (I know, amateur mistake), I see my conference now ends soon enough for me to catch an earlier flight. I'm going to ask at the airport, but in theory (ha!) this option on the app should be just what you need to reset your booking to its pre-checkin state enabling you to change it yourself online. I'm 100% certain that won't be the case though, so was wondering what in fact it DOES do...
