How do I make both the Rotate and Scale tools live in the Toolbar at the same time?

Question

Might be a simple thing - but how do I get the Rotate and Scale tools to both be visible at the same time in the Toolbar. At the moment it looks like I can either have one or the other live and I have to click on the little arrow in the bottom right corner to toggle between them. When I have the Rotate tool active and click on the 3 dots at the bottom of the tool bar (to edit the Toolbar) the Scale tool is greyed out - so I cant add it as a separate tool in the tool bar? Why is this? And is there also a way to have both active at the same time. The same question applies to the white pointer arrow and the arrow with the ‘+’ next to it. Why cant these both be in the Toolbar at the same time? See image below - showing a greyed out Scale icon that can’t be added whilst Rotate is shown in the Toolbar.

You basically first drag it out and then drag it in again. Like this:

Do you know that you can also drag both of the tools out in their own little panel? And that via Window > Toolsbars > New toolbar you can create your own toolbar with just the tools you need?
