Media Icon Display

I can't find any explanation/definition for an icon which displays on some of my Media icons which have Version Sets.  It appears in the upper left hand corner of the thumbnail; it consists of a circle with white color small border shown first inside the circle, then there is another circle within which there is a darkened area  having a white bar/slash through it.  This  happens on Edited files.  There seems to be a connection to the original file, which  came from my camera, that has a name/ID that always begins with a P followed by a 7 digit number.  I've tried every search I can think of but can't find any reference to this icon.  There has to be a reason for its appearance, perhaps there is some cautionary purpose?   (I have Elements 14 and Windows 10.) 

Thanks for taking a look at it.  I hope I'm making some sense...

    When you do a search with various criteria, it's possible that the original and the version don't have the same value. For instance, you have a rating on the version which is different from that of the original. In that case, the version sets are shown 'expanded', showing all versions. The versions which don't correspond to the criteria do show the icon you mention. They are not 'best match'.

    Thank you both for your help.  Perhaps Adobe could include the icon definition in the Elements user manual(s). 

    Best wishes,
