GD&T "size" always different from dimension "size"

Hello,

Just trying to figure this out - when I dimension a circular feature I'll get one size but when adding a GD&T dimension for that same exact feature I get a different size altogether (example below). What's the reason for this?

    I understand going from DEFAULT to LSQ and getting different results for Diameters.

    But how does the going from DEFAULT to LSQ on FEATURE MATH work?
    What is DEFAULT doing? If I have a best fit bolt pattern what MATH do I want?




    Is it just recalculating the TP based on the diameter since the LSQ and the DEFAULT (MAX_INSC) have slightly different center locations?
