The preceding levels are visualized as buttons. This is done to prevent them to take up too much space.

The drill down history offers several advantages. Beneath offering you a way to keep track where you are, if enables you to combine several drill downs.
When you selected additional elements in your drill down history (hold the CTRL key to select more elements), they are combined into one chart. This gives you the ability to combine arbitrary elements in your data with just a few clicks.
The elements you select in the drill down history are applied as filters to other visuals in your report. You can disable this in the property pane with the property "Filter Other Visuals" in the section "Behavior".
You might dynamically compare business units with each other and inspect, where they performed differently.
Another feature available through the drill down history is the selection of dynamic deviation charts. Read more about them in this section.
