what difference does it really make?

The difference is Wilson stated on the record that Cheney would know the result of his tea-sipping trip (so what) and therefore "knew" the uranium story was bogus (which it has not been determined to be despite Wilson's claims).

However, Tenet says Wilson's report was not conclusive and the VP was NOT briefed on it.

See?

i don't contest any of that. tenet did indeed correct wilson's false assumption.

what i was speaking to is the matter of the vice president's apparent interest in the reliability of the uranium story. it was that interest that led to wilson's being sent to africa, though some here try to claim that the CIA was just doing this all on their own, without any connection to the white house.
