I think that a major function of the event list is to create a chronology.
If you want an item to appear in the chronology then I would put it there,
if not then I think some form of note would be appropriate. Yes/No?

There are probably a lot of people who would disagree with me for a lot of
reasons, but -
I find the creation of event types for a single use very cumbersome and
unnecessary. I have a "miscellaneous" event for which the event sentence
is
merely "notes." I can include all the necessary information without
cluttering up the events list.
Just my 2 cents! :)

For my own records, I would see that as two different facts, each creating
its own sentence. You could create an event called SteveDivorce (for only
this one) and hard-write the actual sentence to print. I know you can't
distinguish between 2 dates in any sentence, in Events. Or do a similar
system in the chronology area.
Hope this helps.

I have one couple in my family tree who seperated in 1991
and divorced in 1994, but how do I record that in Legacy?
As a bonus I would like it to print out nicely in reports
"This marriage ended in seperation in 1991 followed by
divorce in 1994" but that would be a nice extra. Right
now, I can only see one place to put seperated/year and
divorced/year. I suppose I could use a custom event, but is
there a better way?
