Layer masks, and vector masks on the same layer

Hello guys,.

It's maybe a stupid question, but I'm unable to understand this one...

If you make a selection on a layer and click on the button of the mask, you create a mask...

But if you press the button mask once more, Photoshop puts a vector mask to this layer,

right next to the layer mask.

To be honest I couldn't do much thing with this vector mask, I've experimented with it, but I just

cannot know, how it interacts with the layer next to her mask (if there is interaction that is).

Can someone help me understand please?

What is the ease of use to have a vector mask next to a layer mask on the same layer?

An explanation with a paradigm would be nice!

Thanks in advance.

Hello

They both hide the image. One will be based pixel, other vector editable. Here's and example of round soft mask on Mona combined with a mask vector hard sharp (on top a still life by Frida!)

How you can use it, it's you.
