Data Definition Questions

I can’t understand what the difference is between these two variables, as they appear to share the same definition. Could you please help clarify?
WORK_BEHAVIOR_DEVICE_HOME_AREAS - This column is the same as work_hours_device_home_are as but only includes devices that dwelled for at least 6 hours and excludes devices whose visit is in the same gh7 as their home location.
DEVICE_DAYTIME_AREAS - This column is the same as work_hours_device_home_areas but only includes devices that dwelled for at least 6 hours and excludes devices whose visit is in the same gh7 as their home location. -
Regarding DISTANCE_FROM_PRIMARY_DAYTIME_LOCATION, does this intend to capture only local trips (i.e. errands) using the “work” location as the base, or, does this capture all trips (including commutes to/from home) utilizing the work location as the base? This is to say, if I am interested in understanding commuting behavior of people based on the location of their employment (not based on the location of their home), does this variable speak to that?
