That is to give it more height and prevent it from becoming a puddle. I haven't tried it without it but I bet it would be too flat otherwise.

When you are making the folds during shaping I am assuming that you are folding into thirds and getting squatter, squarish rectangles, not the other way and getting thinner rectangles, right? What is the purpose of the folding? Is it to trap more air? Anyway, on occasion, if you don't have time can you just stretch the dough, let rise and still get good baguettes?
