My Takeaway from This Job
The mesh supplies a strip across a joint while the filler remains a separate material. All three options use self-adhesive fiberglass tape, so roll dimensions and the amount of seam material supplied are the useful package comparisons.

Fiberglass joint tape provides an open mesh that can be positioned over a suitable finishing joint before the specified compound is applied. The adhesive backing helps hold the strip in place while the material is worked through and over it. For an interior panel finishing plan, keep the joint aligned and remove loose dust before laying the mesh. Cut enough tape for the intended run and smooth it flat. Reinforcement mesh and the filler used with it perform different parts of the repair.
No. The mesh is reinforcement. The selected compound fills and finishes the joint around it.
