A command is a function call that gets executed when typed into the console, while a CVAR is like a data value that does nothing on its own, but can be read/changed by functions.

CVARs are mostly used to set configuration values, while commans are used to make things happen.

I suspect these menu systems will allow commands to be run from them.

tip: in place of "on" and "off" you can also use 1 and 0 respectively. Some menus will need this when doing a toggle switch between 0 and 1.
