The access plan obtained with bind variables is a guess plan because the optimiser lacks information.

The plan obtained with real data is a definitive plan because the optimiser knows everything he needs in order to make a decision.

It's nice to used bind variables to save on parsing but real values give the optimiser more clues to build the access plan .
