4 max hops — This station sets its traffic to be rebroadcast up to 4 times; some frames went out with a smaller budget, as low as 3 — Meshtastic spends fewer hops on a reply than on a broadcast, so this is the reply economy rather than a second setting; above the default of 3. — this is what the station SETS, not how far away it is; the value is carried unchanged through every relay.

Reading the hop budget. Every Meshtastic frame carries a hop limit that each relay decrements. A reception showing 0 left is one that arrived with nothing to spare — one more relay in the path and it would not have arrived at all. That is the closest this data comes to explaining a loss, and it is still not a loss: a frame that was dropped is exactly the one that never reached a gateway to be counted here.
