Do I have it correct that according to the definitions from Tom Keith's post 6/off is impossible in the first position and 7/1 is illegal though not impossible in the second position? Why should there be a difference?

Also, do I have it correct if playing LM with the impossible moves rules the only difference is that a subsequent roll lets an illegal though not impossible move stay but an impossible one must still be corrected? Is it a reroll then? What if neither player still noticed. Is it then game on with no more correcting?
