I think it's supposed to cause setup to behave as though you had checked the "Download Without Installing" option in an interactive session. So it should download whatever packages have been selected for installation. In your first run, the only package selected was bash, which was already installed, so setup had nothing to do. In the second run, I assume that you didn't already have csih installed, so setup downloaded it for later install.
