Difference in coumn source types in BMM layer

Hi All,
Can you please clear me on one thing? What it makes a difference if I define ABC column from "Derived from existing columns using an expression" or if the same column if defined as "Derived from physical mappings"? What will be the difference in queries getting generated by a bi_server?

Physical = pre-aggregation execution. i.e. executed row-by-row.
Derived logical = post-aggregation execution. i.e. executed on result sets.
