As always when dealing with flows in Activity Diagrams:
Webel Best Practice: Webel recommends when using MagicDraw/Cameo: AVOID the "elided Pin" abstract ObjectNode notation on Activity Diagrams, use explicit Pins!

Notes
[ISSUE, TOOL] MagicDraw/Cameo: ERROR: Incorrectly uses 2 ObjectFlow edges and a CentralBufferNode for "elided Pin notation" instead of an abstract ObjectNode _symbol_ and 2 arrow _symbols_ (notations that are supposed to represent together 2 Pins and 1 ObjectFlow edge)
[DISPLAY, ISSUE, TOOL, WARNING] Webel recommends when using MagicDraw/Cameo: AVOID the "elided Pin" abstract ObjectNode notation on Activity Diagrams, use explicit Pins!
