What is the difference? From the website it sounds like the favicon is changed. So the tab doesn’t go away it’s just on pause Google: “ a discarded tab doesn't go anywhere. We kill it but it's still visible on the Chrome tab strip. If you navigate back to a tab that's been discarded, it'll reload when clicked. Form content, scroll position and so on are saved and restored the same way they would be during forward/backward tab navigation.” In the future this will be updated to also use a serializer for discarded tabs.
