I'm not entirely sure what it means enough to give a summary.

The first usage that pops into my mind is when someone has said a silly joke regarding your situation and you want to acknowledge the joke but also move on quickly.

Second usage is someone has suggested something, you want to say you understand but you have a different opinion.
