Retrofit not importing all the changes

The topic is the Retrofit function - once again. I saw a discussion thread about this here but no useful answer. So, let me ask again: why (what is the logical reason) doesn't Retrofit import all the changes made in the reviewed file?

I even found the following statement in the Retrofit section in the manual for Studio 2017: "Setting the slider to Tolerant, does not necessarily mean that all changes made to the reviewed target document will be imported into the project file". This means that SDL must be aware of this matter. However, on of the points of Studio is that you have the ability to be as accurate as possible - down to the smallest inter-punctuation. Yet here we have a function that, as it seems, does its work in an arbitrary way - some of the changes are being imported, some are not. Why? And what is the algorithm that decides which changes are worth being imported and which left out?

Could anyone explain that - anyone from SDL perhaps?
