It increases local contrast in the highlights and allows quite a bit of flash - an almost visible flash that is removed by the bleach. This can work wonders in recovering the blocked highlights that sit on the shoulder of the film curve and the toe of the paper curve and thus have miserable contrast. Try this if flashing just leads to grey highlights. Slight overprinting and then careful bleaching of highlights would probably be my preferred method.

Just make sure the enlarger is NOT focussed and the lens is well stopped down. You might not need a diffuser.
If you need less light output so you can control the exposure - try ND filters as used on your camera lens. Cheers Ray
