From the second line of the article:
"BA said it is reverting to manual systems for check-in at airports."
The problem is that the manual process is slower and once a flight gets too delayed then it misses its slot and if too many flights get delayed it causes cascading problems since there aren't enough free later slots to put them in and you have to cancel.
