Too small to read!
I guess what you are referring to though.
As you know I’ve been experimenting with IngramSpark recently, their pricing calculators show exactly what you get with either sales option.

Amazon, etc. take 50% of the List Price right off of the top.
That is the main reason I receive $3.09 from the sale of a $53.50 book when sold through Amazon.
Yes. It bites.

Unfortunately I’m using my phone in hospital and it doesn’t enlarge. No problem, I understand what you are talking about.

LSI most likely stands for Lightning Source Ingram as opposed to other companies in different fields using the same acronym.

As part of my Adventure with IngramSpark I was interested how clearly they illustrated the costs.
There was the option to set different sales prices for different regions of the World for global distribution sales outlets and also for Amazon et al .
But the standard discount taken by the resellers was a fixed 55%, including Amazon.
So my revenue was the book selling price, minus 55%, minus the print charge.
I was never aware with Lulu exactly what their price breakdown was.
This may help Potet.
