My reading (which could be very wrong) is that org-hd-marker is always
set to the start of the headline.  org-marker, on the other hand, is set
to some position in the entry that depends on who is setting it.

For example, with an agenda file like

  ** TODO a
  SCHEDULED: <2020-10-26 Mon>

and a buffer generated with org-agenda-list, org-marker for the entry
points to "<".  In a buffer generated with org-todo-list, it points to
the first "*" of the headline (i.e. the same position as org-hd-marker).

Headline, I guess.
