If a sequence is generated via "from:to" and "from" is a vector and not
a scalar, R gives a warning that only the first value is used. If "to"
is a vector, there is no warning.

Example:

> (1:4):10  # warning
Warning in (1:4):10 : Numerical expression has 4 elements: only the first used
 [1]  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10
> 1:(10:12) # NO warning
 [1]  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10
