It's defined in the process doc.  I think the wording in the diagram is 
to refer to:

http://www.w3.org/2015/Process-20150901/#substantive-change
It is 3 Corrections that do not add new features and 4 New features.

Here's the section that says what happens in those cases PR for 3 and 
FPWD for 4.

Maybe "feature modifications" or "feature tweaks" instead of substantive 
and "new features" instead of very substantive for the diagram ?
