Robot tries to optimize reinforcement distribution and generates the initial arrangement of zones. Then it decides on the reinforcement value that separates dense rebar spacing and standard reinforcement spacing in each of the zones. If you enter 50% it means that in each of the zones there may be up to 50% or rectangles with standard (larger spacing). If there is more the zone is redefined. For 70% only 30% rectangles could be such that the are of reinforcement with larger (standard) spacing would be sufficient meaning you will have more zones generated than for the 50% value.
