What does force do in the Set-AzureDeployment powershell script

I am unable to find any documentation about what the force parameter does in the powershell command Set-AzureDeployment.

Set-AzureDeployment [-Upgrade] [-ServiceName] [-Package] [-Configuration] [-Slot] [[-Mode] ] [[-Label] ] [[-RoleName] ] [[-Force]] [[-ExtensionConfiguration] ] [ ]

Has anyone else been able to find documentation around this, or have experience of what it actually does?

Looking at the documentation for Upgrade Deployment which is implemented by Set-AzureDeployment Cmdlet, here's what I found regarding Force parameter:

Indicates whether the update should proceed even when it will cause local data to be lost from some role instances. True if the update should proceed; otherwise false.

The Force element is only available using version 2011-10-01 or higher.
