What is the difference between "Bookmark" and "Search"?

What is the difference between "Bookmark" and "Search"? When should you use bookmarks, when should you use search filters?

Bookmarks remember the search, sort, view and current index.
Filters only remember the search.

Bookmarks replace the current search.
Filters can be combined with the current search.

I never understood why it is not possible to move the special features of filters to bookmarks, and leave the filters to be just filters.

I am not sure what you mean "the special features of filters"

Bookmarks have the same search features as filters.

Do you mean remove the column, sort and view options from filters?

I mean everything you can do with filters that is not just filters, should move to bookmarks, and leave filters to be just filters.
