Difference between using and not using a container

What is the difference between using and not using a container?

Please refer to the example below:

 

1) When using a container:

(Including Visits that include Hits)

yes container.png

 

2) When NOT using a container:

(Including Hits only)

no container.png

 

I've blocked out the data for security issues, however all the conditions are pretty much the same except the usage of a container.

 

As the results show, TSpV differs a little bit but the rest are the same.

Why does using a container makes difference in TSpV but not the others?

 

Thanks in advance.

The segments shown in the screenshots are not equal. The first returns the visits where at least one hit matches the criteria, the second one returns only those hits that match the criteria. The second segment returns a subset of the first segment.
 
To make the segments equal you should either set "Include Hit" in the first segment or set "Include Visit" in the second one. Try and let us know the result.
