There is a difference. Using margin-top when you want blank space for a section break does not work when that space is at the bottom of the screen. But padding-top does even if it has to add the space to the top of the next screen.
With the hr you don't need padding-top because even if you lose the space, you do see the line at the bottom of the screen. It's the same with your examples of section breaks. As long as you can see the line or whatever is used at the bottom of the screen, then you know that's where the section breaks and the next paragraph starts the next section.
