Could someone tell me why:
/var/lib/tftpboot(/.*)? - is using (/.*)?
This covers /var/lib/tftpboot and all files under it and gives them the label tftpdir_rw_t
/tftpboot/.* - is using .*
This covers all files under /tftpboot/ giving them the label tftpdir_t. There is a separate entry for the directory: /tftpboot directory system_u:object_r:tftpdir_t:s0 As to why the difference I've no idea as looking at other root dirs with semanage fcontext -l I can see most of them use (/.*)? which makes sense.
Thanks,

There was some fixes used for udev that allowed labeling to run faster if the top level directory had this type of labeling as I recall. Probably not as important with all of the improvements to labeling algorithms over the years.
