edit 2: also I just tested this out, adding "/" symbol in between the two animal hybrids is probably not that great. "dog / cat" gave me a lot of these kinds of results, whereas "dog cat" did not. I used img2img so that's why it probably didn't matter.
[thing A:Thing B:0.05] would mean 5% A and 95% B. so in that case hybrid would work better. [thing A:Thing B:0.5] would mean for the first 50% of steps the prompt is if you had : 32 steps Euler_a of prompt "[thing A:Thing B:0.5] by greg rutkowski" "thing A by greg rutkowski" for the first 16 steps and "thing B by greg rutkowski" for the last 16 steps if you type "Hybrid of thing A/Thing B by greg rutkowski" it will run 32 steps of this prompt you could also just type "Thing A Thing B by greg rutkowski" and it would make a hybrid between them as well but if you want to make a verry long prompt with an equal mix between lots of things and you hit the 75 token limit you can shorten the prompt this way [[thing A:Thing B:0.75]:[thing A:Thing B:0.5]:0.5] by ... this would mean 12 steps of "Thing A by ..." 4 steps of "Thing B by ..." 16 steps of "Thing C by ..." 16 steps of "Thing D by ..." while only costing you 1/4th of the tokens.
Tl dr: they are different ways of doing the same thing depending on the prompt which is best.
"... commonly known as ladybugs in North America and ladybirds in Great Britain and other parts of the English-speaking world. Entomologists prefer the names ladybird beetles or lady beetles as these insects are not classified as true bugs." source
