Full breakdown available https://www.gavinwhittaker.info/post/what-s-the-difference-happy-clamping

The toolset includes 2 separate notes (both separate gizmos and can be used separately)

GW Happy Clamper:

This is a simple but handy tool which will clamp the alpha in the stream based on the value that you set: everything above that value is clamped to 1.00 (with some extra controls for eroding or expanding and blurring the alpha)

GW DiffClamp

Difference keyer with clamping controls.

This is a handy tool for when you need to quickly extract a difference based alpha and clamp the output based on custom settings.

There are two methods available depending on whether you need a hard or softer edge alpha.

You can then either

1) Clamp the outgoing alpha based on a minimum value (all alpha pixels below this will be clamped to 1).

2) Use the Gain slider to create a softer alpha based on the difference between inputs.

Hope these are useful, always open to feedback.
