Read as a collector, that table is the set's personality: 14 Double Rare ex anchor the playable chase, 21 Ultra Rares carry the full-art treatments, and 38 Illustration-class and Hyper-class cards form the art-first tier that most collectors actually hunt. Read as a player, the same table is a shopping map — the Double Rare line is where the format's tools live.
Composition, for deck builders: the set's Pokémon lean Grass (34), Water (30), Fighting (23) by card count, backed by 38 Trainer cards in the data. Type density is destiny for a set's decks — it predicts which archetypes the set can feed on its own and which must import help from neighboring sets.
