Well, for me it's not confusing. It's basically the same thing as with PFlow, only here, Tyson added possibility to skip the time test operator.
You need to take into consideration particle life (or age).
If it's "frame" selected, it will just ignore particle age and delete particles according to exact frame.
If it's "particle age" selected, it will respect particle life age. So, if you type 70 for particle age, the particle born in 0 frame will die on 70 frame, and particle born on 70 frame will die on 140 frame.
If it's "event" selected, it will only look at the event where operator is, and will not care about anything else. If you type 70, every particle that comes into the event will live 70 frames.
