The filesystem backup excludes a lot of unnecessary files and directories which 
are filtered by NW and/or Windows (look at the registry entry 
"FilesNotToBackup"). It is not 'state-critical'

The OSSR backups must have more info because they in fact have to recover the 
disk and system to a certain state. Unfortunately, it is a VSS backup and it is 
not documented what it contains.

The OSSR_B save set obviously applies to the hidden (DR) partition. TO back it 
up you must also assign a drive letter to it.

To include the current date, use "savetime>=date".
