It saves time. You used to have to wait in one line to check-in, one line the clear security, and one line to board the plane. Now you check-in digitally to confirm you intend on flying, TSA verifies your ID matches a flight ticket when you clear security, and you show your ticket to board the plane. It saves time for everyone and the only people who need to physically check in are checking their bags.
