"As directives, labels (including hotkeys and hotstrings), and declarations without assignments are processed when the script is loaded from file, they are not subject to control flow"
I suggest that complex sentence be written as these two sentences, it's then much clearer.
“Directives, labels (including hotkeys and hotstrings), and declarations without assignments, are all processed when the script is loaded from a file. As such, they are not subject to control flow.”
adjusting this complex sentence
