I am trying to understand the mechanics of triggers, specifically 'When and item is created or modified' vs. 'When an item is created' vs. 'When an item or file is modified'

I have a meeting tracker list contents of which are continually being added to, with new items, or the existing items are being modified.

As a Power Automate neophyte, I've been leaning on 'When an item is created or modified', with a Condition(s), that sends at an email, as my default Trigger and Actions.

In the following flow one Condition includes the 'Status' and 'Next Meeting Date' columns, the other only includes the 'Status' column.

The intent is to only send an email for items that meet the related condition(s) and were changed within five minutes of the Trigger action being initiated.

The 'Get changes for an item or a file (properties only)' has the following expression -
formatDateTime(addMinutes(utcNow(),-5),'yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ')

Once the initial change has been acted upon and the email sent, what I want to avoid is sending repeated emails from the flow because that original (or any) set of conditions haven't changed. Only the item(s) that meet the condition(s) and were "modified" within five minutes of the flow trigger action should be acted upon.
