Yamato's Ult/Unstoppable being inconsistent to what it's immune to.

The description the ult explains that you "gain immunity to negative status effects" but it's never consistent of what status effects counts or doesn't. For example; stuns and roots not work against her, but things like infernus afterburn or silence can still be applied. So this descriptions makes no sense for what it's implying for what it does. Unstoppable says that is *supresses* negative status effects but it still takes the damage of pockets afflicition and it stills applies through the item being active.

Debuff remover purges ALL negative effects applied to you. Which works with affliction and after burn and the other negatives effects I named.
 
For starters. status effects are effects that affect your control of your hero in any way i.e stun, silence and root etc.

Firstly, there is a part of yamatos ult that isn't in the description and that is that she purges all negative effects while she channels the ult.

Once her ult is active the rest of the description is perfectly accurate. Yamatos ult states the she is immune to negative status effects. She is not immune to all negative effects. I also tried her in sandbox and she is 100% immune to silence while in her ult form altough it can still be applied. Infernus 3 is not a negative status effect, its simply a negative effect thus you get no immunity for it in yamato ult or in unstoppable.

Debuff remover simply removes all negative effects. It can't be used during stuns but if you could you would be able to remove stuns too.

The only real inconsistency is that silence can be applied while to targets with unstoppable or yamato ults but it doesnt actuallyaffect them.
 
So what categories as a negative status effect and what is a negative effect. So would toxic bullets be negative effect because the damage can be still applied and not a negative status effect. When you use the ult or unstoppable, the damage applies but the healing debuff isn't applied so is this considered the negative status effect for the healing reduction? If Yamato's ult/Unstoppable is working perfectly as intended it is still needed to clear up what exactly the type of abilities are considered negative effects and negative status effects. And that phrasing makes it more confusing as there should be a clarification of what can truly go through the "immunity"; the "status" feels too disambiguous for what it intends. Similar to how Dota 2 works, the skills in the that game explains whether damage is PURE or MAGICAL or PHYSICAL and whether it goes through immunity.
