LVM1 caches its metadata and has less-stringent checks. That message means it found an anomaly that it couldn't fix - the metadata on 3 of your devices formed a consistent VG after you restored the backup, but the metadata on the 4th device hdf3 still said it was part of the VG. Filtering tells LVM2 to ignore hdf3 completely, then pvremove hdf3 wipes LVM metadata from it.
