Is there a difference between piping the External Data Ref from Embedded Data Field vs Panels Field?

@KeirJ, I also assumed Firstname, Lastname and Email were automatically captured too. But to my embarrassment, this data was not available to the Reports-Module on the first round of surveying I did. I had to manually add a Survey Flows to add these fields - then they appeared the in the next round of data for my Reports. And Yes, I should have tested this beforehand - but I could swear that data came across automatically too.
Now to be safe, I just Pipe in that data from Survey Flows no matter, just to be safe. But to khippen question - I still don't know the difference between these two methods of piping in data:
${m://FirstName}
${e://Field/FirstName}
${e://Field/RecipientFirstName}
I tested each, and all sets of data came into my Report. I actually prefer to use the RecipientFirstName.
