Here's an example where you'd use Model and Include Setup Model.

 

Say you have a part with a hole but you don't want the cutter going into the hole when finishing.

You'd go to the Patch Workspace and create a patch.

Then in your op You'd select the patch as the Model Surface and include the setup model.

If you don't select include setup model you risk something like this happening.

Edit, and this is what you get with include stock model. So be careful if you are selecting just the surfaces you want to machine as the model in an op because the op will not look at the set model.
