Is to say "focus in on" different from "focus on?"

Yes, slightly! "Focus in on" is more specific than "focus on" as you're highlighting a specific area within a focus and not just focusing on something general. It's more detailed and intentional. Ex: Let's focus in on this part of the maths equation. => may already be "focused," but implies a more specific area or part of the equation. Ex: Let's focus on solving the maths equation and not on chatting.
