Decreased Initiative of summoned units?

What is the meaning of decreased Initiative (-15, for the first turn only) of Summoned units?
(such as Phoenix/Elementals)
They act right after the friendly creature that was active on summoning them, so I fail to see the point. Thanks!

After what units do the elementals come?

They become active RIGHT AFTER your own unit that was active at the time of summoning them.
EXAMPLE:
* My Inferno hero attacks an enemy hero (or neutrals).
* My own Champion Unit (Devils) goes first - it has the highest Initiative.
* I summon some Earth Elementals, they appear in the action bat right AFTER the Devils.
* Attack with the Devils (they have a special attack that hurts all enemy units at once, with a 3 turns cooldown) or move them.
* Earth Elementals are next - if you right-click them, they show as having an Initiative lowered by 15 points.

I am wondering if this may somehow be important for the 2nd turn of the Elementals, BUT the -15 Initiative is valid for the FIRST turn only... So not sure.
Looks redundant/confusing.
Or maybe somehow this means they will get active on the 2nd turn at that reduced initiative?
EDIT: No, they act according to their normal (non-reduced) initiative level on the 2nd turn. So clearly a bug or unclear/badly worded text.

As in "bug in tooltip"??
Example: Upgraded Glories were supposed to heal back after a battle, but Ubi just removed the tooltip text that says they do - there, problem fixed!!

Likely. Post it in the bug report thread if you care and eventually it will make its way to them and be addressed.
