Difference between Project State and Phase

Hi all, I guess not a new topic.

Theres a really nice article from Rae Ann Prasnic on the topic.

Understanding Project States - ServiceNow Community

 

That said Im trying to get my head around it still.

 

For example Users ask:

What does it mean if: Project State=Pending and Phase=Executing?

What does it mean if: Project State=Work in Progress and Phase=Initiating?

 

I am a little stuck how to answer such questions. It is confusing to Users and not intuitive!

 

How would you answer those questions?

 

Best regards
