    With a two-step keymap, whether it is configured for "key down" + "key up" (a single key) or "key up" + "key up" (same key twice), this is the exact same thing -- two inputs, causing two outputs. If you don't want to use the Blizzard approved Keyboard API function of an event on key-down, and another on key-up (which addons like Macaroon use), then don't. Set it to advance to the next step, on key release only.
    thats not even the same thing i was asking...

    I'm not talking about a 2 step keymap or a keymap at all. I'm talking about ONE button press (just the down portion of it for the sake of clarity), activating the FTL DPS assist (as the default FTL DPS keys all do) AND the IWT keybind at the same time. This is what the third step of the OP's keymap is doing. It is not doing this in multiple steps but in the same step (everytime you press that key it FTL assists and on the 3rd step it ALSO sends IWT). Activating a macro + a keybind is 2 actions any way you split it.

    The penny method is still not the same thing as it is two hardware actions seen by the computer, whereas this method is only one hardware action, I know that topic has been beaten to death but it just feels like I'm getting a ton of answers to questions I didn't ask. Am I that unclear?

    Let me give an example.
    I go to a default FTL DPS key.
    i press 1... it sends FTL assist + 1 to my game
    i bind 1 to IWT

    I press 1 one time and I get FTL assist + IWT.... how is this one action per one keypress when IWT cannot be macro'd
