When you add a site content type to a list you are creating a copy of the content type for the list. This means you can make changes to the list content type without affecting the site content type.
This also means that if you update the site content type and do not opt to apply changes to child content types, the list content type will not get updated.
You can learn more about content types in USP Journal Volume 1, Issue 2
