Yeah, it's not 100% clear, but the intention was to calculate premium plus excess for both policies to determine the actual saving.

Stock is the generic name we use to refer to the camera app that comes pre-installed with your device.

Picture quality is the advantage.. GCam can add extra features (or remove them) depending on the feature set of the stock app.
