Export file size
I have two TIFF files in a folder, neither have any layers. EXPORTING to desktop as TIFF, pixel dimensions unchanged, one image's MB size stays the same, the others is about 1/3 less. But if I EXPORT them as ORIGINAL, the MB size does not change.. I don't understand why. Could someone explain it please. Thank you

There was a crop on the image. When I EXPORTED it as a TIFF (which the file is) I got the cropped version, when I exported it as ORIGINAL I get the uncropped version.
The cropped area was very similar to the rest of the image, that's my excuse for not spotting the difference

When exporting as "Original", Lr is basically just making a copy of the original file - TIFF, jpg, dng, whatever. There are no additional export settings that would cause the size to change.
