Weird Polygon tool berhavior?

Question

Here's what I do. First, select the Polygon tool in the toolbar with a click of the mouse.

Then click and drag in the middle of the page *without* releasing the mouse.

Initially, the up and down arrow keys increase or decrease the "number of sides". Fine.

But! If I tap and release the space bar then, up and down arrow keys gives a "grid" of Polygons!

Holding the space bar down while tapping the right or left arrow keys turns the Polygon into a star.

Is that what you are getting too?
All under US Keyboard definition. Important.

Even weirder... I'm not sure what to think?
I start with a triangle.

Arrow keys produce a grid of triangles, as this image shows:

But if I tap once on the Space bar (press and release) then the behavior of the arrow keys change?
Left and Right transforms into a star shape while Up and Down adds/decrease the number of sides.
Is the the correct behavior?
