  See, this is exactly what I'm talking about: "Documentation is easier to
understand if you read what it says, and not what you expect it to say."

  Documentation does not say UInt and uint act exactly the same and have
exactly the same properties.

  That's your expectation.

  Ignore your expectations.  Read what the documentation says, not what you
expect it to say.

  It'll make more sense.
