Would someone explain to me what a text source variable is and how and why I would use one.

I haven't found any documentation on this.

thanks.

Text Source Variable is used for conditionally displaying text in your report.

Drag and drop a text item in your report.
create a conditional variable (boolean) based on a prompt value.
Apply the variable to text source variable property  of the text item.
Now include different Text based on the values returned.
