Erosion means it reduces over time.
TP ends with a major change of circumstances (such as swapping either way between single/couples claim).
TP reduces if you are awarded a new element under UC, by the same financial amount.
Or it reduces slowly as the benefits go through an annual rise each year.
Example with made up figures:
TP awarded of £400
April rise of £15
TP reduces to £385.
Eventually when those benefit increases reach £400, TP will end.
So at some point two people who migrated from ESA, one with SDP one without, will be on the same money.

It's nothing to do with LCW/LCWRA.
LCWRA +Standard Allowance currently pays £809.64.
I don't know how else to explain Transitional Protection eroding.
Try this definition:

i should imagine its to put all benefit claimants on the same level playing field uc goes up your tp comes down if you get it the more elements you claim after migration will reduce your tp untill you dont get it as with most things people dont read with there brains and think oh i get 400 tp i will go for lcwra and get some more then end up worse off or no better off not rocket science

By 'lose' £5, they don't mean your income gets lowered by £5, but your income wouldn't go up £5, because what is increased in your other elements, is deducted from the transitional protection element.
So it sort of means your income is frozen. Your income-related benefits won't increase and will stay at what they currently are, until it matches what everyone else claiming the same as your situation is also receiving.

My advice is go to the job centre speak to dwp face to face they will explain it better that's what I did. If you are confused they'll help you

I don't blame you.
I would rather go to citizens advice.
