My org has had a few instances of URL paths and/or page names changing globally, so I rely a lot on hit-level segments to replace dimension tables. Something I've noticed is that entries, and therefore bounce rate, does not act as expected in this scenario. When I use a segment that is hit-based with simple (URL = xx or URL = xx2) to combine the pre- and post-change URLs, it gives entries = visits. Looking at the same URLs in a dimension table, the entries is equal to the number of entries on that URL.
I understand the mechanics behind why this is happening, technically each occurrence of URL = xx did have an entry, but that's not the entry I'm looking for if I'm using a hit-based segment. This behavior feels off to me and I'm wondering if (aside from creating my own bounce rate metric that doesn't rely on entries) there's a solution or workaround.
