Looks like we probably don't have the full story....
To OP, they certainly checked your ticket or else how would they tell you about the downgrade, and you mentioned you just stepped aside, and no mention of seat reassignment, did BA inform you prior to boarding?
Just pure guessing, since you are not in business class any more, you can't board along with group 1 or 2. you have to wait for your boarding group, and you have no group, you have to wait till last ?
