The gemara assumes that when the mishna mentions the common denominator between all 4 categories of damages, it must be to include an additional case that we wouldn’t have been able to learn from a particular category. There are 4 cases brought that are each unique and needed to be learned from the common denominator and couldn’t be derived from one individual category.

These opinions are explained in the gemara as well as their derivations.
