My statement was about the fact that you've written *first* match in the
info docs.

At least, we now agree that the last match wins.  And it looks quite
cumulative.

Yes.  Here are my parameters.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq gnus-parameters
      `((,(rx (or "emacs" "gnus"))
         (gnus-button-emacs-level 10))

	(,(rx "nnimap+")
	 (gnus-use-scoring nil))

	;; Where to expire
	(,(rx "nnimap+Uni:")
	 (gcc-self . t)
	 (expiry-target . "nnimap+Uni:Trash"))
	(,(rx "nnimap+Fastmail:")
	 (gcc-self . t)
	 (expiry-target . "nnimap+Fastmail:INBOX.Trash"))
	(,(rx "nnimap+Gmail:")
	 (gcc-self . t)
	 (expiry-target . "nnimap+Gmail:[Google Mail]/Trash"))

	;; TEST CLAUSE
	(,(rx "nnimap+Uni:INBOX")
	 )
	
	;; Mailing List exceptions
	(,(rx "nnimap+Uni:ml/")
	 (gcc-self . "nnimap+Uni:Sent")
	 (expiry-target . "nnimap+Uni:Trash"))
	(,(rx "nnimap+Fastmail:INBOX.mailinglists.")
	 (gcc-self . "nnimap+Fastmail:INBOX.Sent Items")
	 (expiry-target . "nnimap+Fastmail:INBOX.Trash")
	 (gnus-use-scoring t))

	(,(rx "nntp+Gmane:gwene.")
	 (gnus-use-scoring t)
	 (gnus-summary-line-format
	  "%U%R%4{┃%}%2us%4{┃ %*%B%} %s %3{<%&user-date;>%}\n"))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

See the TEST CLAUSE.  If group parameters were cumulative, then in
nnimap+Uni:INBOX I should have gcc-self working.  Just tested, and the
Gcc is set to my archive group meaning no gcc-self is set.

Bye,
Tassilo
