Are the results in the list of duplicate input gestures ordered in such a way that you know "who wins"? #13

It seems to me that input gestures have to load in some order and, logically, whoever loads either first, or last (I'm not sure which) will be "the winner" as far as owning the input gesture. As an example, if I do a "Search for duplicate gestures," the following list results (I'm omitting the description):

  1. NVDA + Shift + L (all keyboard layouts) Speech Logger
  2. NVDA + Shift + L (all keyboard layouts) Number Processing
  3. NVDA + Shift + L (all keyboard layouts) Ask ChatGPT
  4. NVDA + Shift + V (all keyboard layouts) Tools
  5. NVDA + Shift + V (all keyboard layouts) Tools

I know that when I hit NVDA + Shift + L, it is Speech Logger that actually processes the command. What I don't now are two things:

  1. Is that because Speech Logger loads last and gets possession of the input gesture as a result, or does it load first, and keep it as a result?
  2. Is whatever happens to be uppermost in its "section of the list" the thing that's going to have possession of a given duplicated input gesture if nothing is changed?

I realize this is neither a true issue or a true feature request, but it would be handy to know, in particular, whether the uppermost item in any section of the list that identifies duplicate input gestures is the thing that will process that gesture if no alterations are made for the others that also have it listed.
