Egpws flap inhibit

Hi all

We occasionally perform reduced flap landings that require us to inhibit the flap function of egpws (mode 4b I believe). Aside from silencing the 'too low, flap' call what actually is inhibited from gpws?
I've heard it suggested that using the flap inhibit switch removes some terrain floor protection.
Anyone more knowledgable than I care to comment ?
Many thanks.
