I remember reading somewhere in this wikia of an idea: That basically, Aura, besides the shielding, does nothing else, and without training even the shielding part is nearly-unnoticeable.

The idea explained that Aura does not make people stronger automatically, instead, what unlocking one's Aura does, besides the Semblance, is "break their limit". In other words, it allows them to reach physical levels far above what a normal person could ever reach.

They can become stronger than a normal person could ever hope to be. With strength, comes endurance. And with strength on the legs, comes speed. And as such, these "buffs" remain even if Aura goes down (though the protection is obviously lost). Higher awareness or mental capabilities may or may not be granted by Aura (we haven't gotten any good examples of that).
