This is related to a few recurring issues and recent changes with how the Tools UI is working (or not) in certain scenarios. The intention of this doc is to call out more explicitly what is by design, and what to expect in the UI when using Inspector when testing different types of input parameters.
How Has This Been Tested?
Tests are updated, but doc needs to be reviewed to ensure its consistent with what we actually want to happen in the UI.
