Diff between "Delete headers&replies" & &q

These two commands seem to do the same thing? Or is there a difference?

Oops.. I noticed that the subject of my post got garbled. Ok, the two commands in question are:

a) Delete headers&replies
b) Delete threads

These two commands seem to do the same thing. I was wondering if there is a difference.

in the second case it tries to delete everything belonging to the thread, not necessarily replies to the headers currently in the thread, e.g. if the original root message expired from the server, it may still delete replies from other branches when they arrive even if they are not replies of remaining headers.
