Using two data-toggle for same element in bootstrap

I was messing around with Bootstrap and created a page which has a simple navigation menu. I wanted to add modal for one of the links, which already has a tooltip.

And I did add the modal to li like this,

data-toggle="modal" data-target="#SettingsModal" data-toggle="tooltip"

Surprisingly, its working. It doesn't make much sense. Because at least one data-toggle has to be neglected.

I know that it is better to wrap it inside an element which has tooltip. My question is, how is this working?

It's working because the Bootstrap data attributes use separate jQuery selectors to "activate" the various components.

Since $('[data-toggle="modal"]') and $('[data-toggle="tooltip"]') are both referenced in the Bootstrap JS code, both modal and tooltip components are working.
