The difference is the cage length which means the medium cage will take up more chain slack than the short. Useful if say you were running two chainrings up front or had rear suspension where the chain length required in a given combination changes as it goes through its travel.
The short will have enough chain capacity do 1X with 11-36 I believe.

Medium capacity is all you need to know, may work with a bigger sprocket if needed (like 11-42)

One is short and other is medium cage but both say largest cog capacity of 36t.
Basically I want to use it 1x with a 40t chainring.
