From the (old) documentation I read
<<Data products, such as e-books or programs downloaded across the internet, could not generate shipping charges. Promotional
pricing might include 'free shipping' which would override this setting. If you intend to charge for the shipping expense, however,
this should be set to Yes.>>
So if you use it, you will get a "no shipping" option (the Service product is a good example for that)
If you have a mix of products with Y and N, then you are able to choose between no shipping and others options
As the doc says there is also the possiblity to use a promotion with action "Shipping X% action" (with X=100) for that
