Difference between Reference and Duplicate
In simple terms, Duplicate will duplicate the code of the query while Query Reference will only refer the result of the query.
Duplicate is generally used when you would like to create a similar query and you do not want to type the same code. You can make changes to this query.
Reference in Query means you would like to use that Query results in some other queries where your original query remains as a base Query and it can be used in other queries for the further processing.
For an example if you need to filter same data set to create seperate tiles, like if you want to pick only today date figures or any date sequence. you can use the same query as a base and refrenec it rather than duplicating the query.
Although both can be used for the same purpose, but REFRENCING the same dataset is an eligent approach...
