STAR is * in Section Access?

I am trying to implement Section Access in an app in Qlik Cloud just for app access using AD groups. No data reduction should occur. At least i thought it would not occur. When i implement the code below with 2 AD groups, One being for User access the other for Admin access the script had data that is changed. When i comment the below code out the data goes back to being what it should be. So i just commented out the STAR is * line and everything works fine. What exactly does this little line of code do? I read this but i still don't understand why it's having an affect on my data that is included in my app. With the STAR in place it ignores some locations that should be included in the app. I've copied this block of code into many apps taking for granted that little line and it's never caused me an issue until now.

What am i missing?

STAR is *;

Section Access;

Security:
LOAD * Inline [
ACCESS, USERID, GROUP
USER, *, General Access AD Group
ADMIN, *, Admin AD Group
];

Section Application;
