What happens when baking powder is used instead of corn starch?

Baking powder is baking soda plus acid, and is used in recipes that don't have acid--acid being what makes baking soda leaven things. I've used baking powder in recipes that call for baking soda, and it didn't hurt them; maybe they were a bit fluffier but that's okay.
