exitWith exits the execution of a context, which doesnt mean it will exit a script.
exitWith exits the execution of a loop defined by one of commands [[do]], [[for]], [[count]] or [[forEach]]. It exits the loop only, not the script. |= Description
A context is defined, for example, by while loops, for loops, if blocks, etc.
To simplify, if you have code between {}, then you have a context. |= Description

Examples

Example 1:
if (_x>5) exitWith {echo "_x is too big"; _x} When _x is greater than 5, outputs message and terminates code in current level with value of _x
Example 2:
for "_j" from 1 to 10 do { player sideChat format ["%1",_j]; if (_j==5) exitWith {player sideChat "5 is enough"}; }; player sideChat "Complete"; Only the "for" loop will exit when the exitWith condition has been fulfilled (not the whole script). Execution will continue after the end of the loop (player sideChat "Complete").
