See, ChangeDegree (the tool in the Surface Tools or Curve Tools section) works for curves and surfaces (although the hint is “Change surface degree” or “Change Degree”). And FitSrf / FitCrv work only with the specified (defined) data type. The confusion turns out!
fitsrf and fitcrv both recalculate their respective object based on tolerance. It’s essentially a rebuild command
change degree affects the math (degree and point count) of the original surface or curve. Two completely different types of calculation going on…

I guess the question is why not have one Refit
command, like there is for ChangeDegree
or Rebuild
, that works on both curves and surfaces.

fair question.
Right. But:
Also, I don’t like the “Change SURFACE degree” hint, it’s better to just “Change Degree”, since the tool also works for curves.
