I don't think the comment made sense, this is probably what it meant to be. It's only checking status type but not the status message, so it can match the "wrong" status if you have substatuses of different messages. I am not sure if that's a feature or bug though. Seems like a bug to me because it prevents you from setting certain messages if you already have similar transient status. Oh, and why does this matching only work on transient statuses anyway.
