Is this meant to be placed inside the tent or underneath the tent? Why is the footprint smaller than the tent floor?

It is meant to be used under the tent. It is cut smaller than the tent floor to prevent water from being trapped between the floor and the footprint.

What is the difference between the "blue" bag and "brown" footprints (except price)?

The Blue and the Brown Footprints are the same, only difference is color. Thank you for asking, let us know if we can answer anything else!

So the rain fly can’t be clipped in if you have the footprint on

The rain fly is clipped on as usual I stake the tent and footprint together or use the poles to keep the footprint from sliding
