Usage of Multiple days option on Modular: Alpha widget

Is there documentation about how the "Multiple days" recurring date works on the "Modular: Alpha" widget?

We use this module in a project for an Event content type and what I needed was to have a recurring event on random dates, for example, an event that would happen on Jan. 12, 21, Feb. 3;

In my mind, if you select the "Multiple days" option it would show three separate line items with "Starts on" and "Ends On" fields for each date (one for Jan 12, Jan 21, and Feb 3 in this case) but currently, it shows only one.

Is that assumption correct? If not, what is the purpose of that widget?

Thanks in advance!

    Alpha's multiple days are consecutive day repeats. It utilises FREQ=DAILY,COUNT=X behind the scenes.

    " Jan. 12, 21, Feb. 3" doesnt exactly map to any kind of pattern, you'll likely have to create three separate single instances, without any repeating patterns. Just like in a calendaring application, there is no pattern so you would create three separate items. These items could be 3 separate entities, or a single entity with multiple field values.

    There is no particular widget that will help you here.
