What's with Timed Submasters?

I've been playing around with Timed Submasters and can't get them to do what I want.

Everything I do fails in some way.

 

I can very easily set a submaster time and have it Dwell. Assign it to a Fader & set the top button to Mark NPs... but then hitting Bump fades up Intensity & hitting Bump again fades out All. Even NP data. :(

If I make the Submaster an I-Master, it holds the NP data. . . . but I can't use Timed Subs. (because Bump = Mark) ((Mark also = Mark))

(The funny thing here is a Timed Submaster only effects the time it takes to Mark an I-Master sub. NP data is the only timed data. Why would I want a 60 second fade submaster to mark in 60 seconds?)

 

Why does a Timed Submaster not hold NP data?

Why does an I-Master Sub not allow Times?

What am I not understanding?
