What is contTypePhysicalChanges?

This counter increments each time a component is physically added to or removed from this container's component table. Admins monitor this counter as a lightweight way to detect unexpected hardware changes to the device without continuously re-polling and diffing the full component table. For example, a sudden increase in contTypePhysicalChanges on an otherwise stable standalone device would prompt an admin to check whether an unauthorized or unexpected module was inserted or removed.
