Any real tangible benefits to linking two people's PNR on the same flight?

Hey all, wanted to ask if anyone has actually has experience in benefiting from linking two seperate people's PNR on the same flight?

Me and my partner booked the same flight on two different PNRs as I booked later. I was able to get Qantas link them together, but does it actually do anything?

I'm hoping it means she can be on the same boarding group.

Yes it does. Same boarding group, same check in (app will show both boarding passes).

And if flight is delayed or cancelled, you will hopefully be automatically put on same new flight!
