I always thought the tagging of priority bags did little more than give you an almost guaranteed spot on the plane- at least in Australia anyway.
So if the plane is overloaded and they need to ditch bags they ditch non priority first. Can happen a lot on full dash 8 with a few pax transferring from international flights.
Granted some ports seem to give priority to first class tags etc but I don't think it's a widely applied rule.
Definitely appears to be non existent in Australia. If they come out early it seems to be coincidence.
My experience at least anyway.
