threat generation seems a bit bugged, but im not sure if its design intention or code spaghetti

When i use a skill like shadow strike, the way its written and implied, in my mind, is that it is an ability that shouldnt generate threat because it gives you obscurement, but for some reason, i still generate high threat. the order of operations as it currently goes (from my observations) is:

attack attempt>attack success>check for obscurement>apply threat if not obscured>grant obscurement

when it should go more like:

attack attempt>attack success>grant obscurement>check for obscurement>apply threat if not obscured

it makes it really hard to be a thief when all of my obscurement attacks get me killed because i get targeted the instant i try anything funny.
