Ballistic Enchantment tooltip is misleading/incorrect

Ballistic Enchantment seems to have a limit of 3 stacks whether it's from heroes or non-hero units. The stacks also seem to be unable to be built/overridden until the previous stacks expire first.

So if you have 3 stacks built up from creeps, you cannot build any (higher damage) hero stacks until the old stacks expire first. Seems unintentional as it punishes players for maximizing Ballistic stacks on creeps.

The tooltip is also misleading because it does not mention the 3 stack limit, and instead only mentions an incorrect '8 Non-Hero stack limit'.
 
I have tested this and this is half right/half wrong. From my testing with Seven ball, when I hit 5 creeps, the banner on the left showed me getting 12% extra weapon damage from 3 creeps, but upon doing the math and comparing to another item, ballistic enchantment did in fact give me 20% extra weapon damage. This was also accurately shown when pressing tab, showing my initial weapon damage go up by 20% after hitting 5 creeps with ball.
