Dear S,
In both #1 and #2 you have checked "Relax" so you are using the  
relaxed values, and will get the same total (76).  The only difference  
is coloring: in #1 all 76 are colored cyan, whereas in #2 the ones  
meeting the strict criteria (50) are cyan and the ones that do not  
meet the strict criteria but do meet the relaxed criteria (26) are  
red.  In #3 you only have the strict ones.
