We call this the 'hold-preferred' flavor of hold-taps. While this flavor may work very well for a ctrl/escape key, it's not very well suited for home-row mods or layer-taps. That's why there are two more flavors to choose from: 'tap-preferred' and 'balanced'.
#### Flavors
- The 'hold-preferred' flavor triggers the hold behavior when the tapping_term_ms has expired or another key is pressed.
- The 'balanced' flavor will trigger the hold behavior when the tapping_term_ms has expired or another key is pressed and released.
- The 'tap-preferred' flavor triggers the hold behavior when the tapping_term_ms has expired. It triggers the tap behavior when another key is pressed.
When the hold-tap key is released and the hold behavior has not been triggered, the tap behavior will trigger.

If this config does not work for you, try the flavor "tap-preferred" and a short tapping_term_ms such as 120ms.
If you want to use a tap-hold with a keycode from a different code page, you have to define another behavior with another "bindings" parameter.For example, if you want to use SHIFT and volume up, define the bindings like `bindings = <&kp>, <&kp>;`. Only single-argument behaviors are supported at the moment.
If this config does not work for you, try the flavor "balanced" with a medium tapping_term_ms such as 200ms.
