Why do we have take-off segments?

I was asked this recently and I have no idea. Google didn't return much either. My only guess was it's a convenient way to describe it and talk about it?

Secondly, the first segment. My manuals say it starts from the end of the TODR to gear up but I was always taught it's lift off (so basically the end of TORR) to gear up. Which is correct? Is there a difference?
