WP8.1 only supported a few portrait screen resolutions with the highest being 1080p. Windows 10 Mobile supports many more resolutions meaning that it can also work on tablet sized screens. I think that is what Microsoft was getting at when they said it is for small tablets.
As for me, I will never by a tablet that has W10M on it, I would rather have the full version of Windows on a tablet.
I thought people have always been demanding a version of Windows that's similar to RT conceptually but without the desktop? But if Windows 10 for small tablets is just the same as the phone version, then that means it pretty just hit RTM. In which case, could we expect to see tablets with Windows 10 Mobile on them in the near future? Or are manufacturers really that hesitant about building those devices?
