Different data for the different data types, filter, display, type or sort. What does 'type' do?

This is probably an easy question.

When using columns.data, Datatables allows us to use different data for the different data types requested, _ filter sort display type

I understand the purpose of _ filter sort display,

but what is the purpose of type?

Example:

 "data": {
 "_": "phone_for_default",
 "filter": "phone_for_filter",
 "display": "phone_for_display",
 "sort": "phone_for_sort",
 "type": "phone_for_type"   // where is this value used?
 }
