Actually, I haven't got a clue.

Does it just enter transactions from the statement?  Doesn't that make
reconciliation kind of pointless?

How does it know what the expense categories are for a given
transaction, or where the income came from?

I understand that there are other features that direct connect supports,
depending on your bank, where you can manipulate your accounts, though I
don't understand why that will be better than using my bank's existing
web interface.

Really, I just ain't got a clue.
