Confusing wording in Hotkeys.htm#combo about the behavior of prefix keys

[zachpoblete]

In the Custom Combinations section of the Hotkeys page, it says, "If the prefix key is also used as a suffix in another hotkey, by default that hotkey is fired upon release"

But I haven't found this to be the case:

1 & 2:: return
^1:: ToolTip("^1 fires on press, not release")

Maybe the docs were instead trying to say that if the prefix key is used by itself in another hotkey, it fires on release?

1 & 2:: return
1:: ToolTip("1 fires on release")

That section also says, "If there is both a key-down hotkey and a key-up hotkey, both hotkeys are fired at once". I think it would be clearer if that was changed to, "If there is both a key-down hotkey and a key-up hotkey, both hotkeys are fired on release."

An example:

1 & 2:: return
1 Up:: MsgBox("The 1 Up hotkey is fired on release.")
1::    MsgBox("The 1 hotkey is also fired on release.")

I don't understand that either. @Lexikos added this section of text via c0313ab. At the time (Jul 7, 2022), this was the version 1.1.34.03. However, even in this version, what is said does not align with what actually happens. It would be great if he could enlighten us (or someone else who understands what he means).
