Yes, I read it. The confusion is in the naming of the switches. Now then my understanding below is correct?
By clicking the "Apps that never connect via VPN", application switches to the exclusive mode that disables the VPN only for the apps added to the list and keep it enabled for everything else.
And by clicking the "Apps that always connect via VPN", application switches to the inclusive mode that activates the VPN only for the apps added to the list and keep it disabled for everything else.
If this is correct please rename this switches appropriately.
