What happens when one of the argument tasks throws an exception is unclear

[VesperGarment]

Type of issue

Typo

Description

Several times in this article it says:

The returned task will always end in the RanToCompletion state with its Result set to the first task to complete. The result value is true even if the first task to complete ended in the Canceled or Faulted state.

This seems wrong. The result value isn't true - it's the first task to complete, as it just said.

I think it should say:

The returned task will always end in the RanToCompletion state with its Result set to the first task to complete. This is true even if the first task to complete ended in the Canceled or Faulted state.
