It certainly does not stop the proxy, and will definitely slow the shutown process, potentially by a lot. The only reason that makes sense is to ensure that the config is in a sane state before stopping the proxy. Which kind of makes sense if reconfigure or restart is implemented as a pair of "stop() && start()" - but would be better implemented as calls to the relevant -k commands.
