Yes, indeed !

This confuses me greatly..

How can I know, when a suffix can apply to other suffixes too, and when it can't ?

Here's my quick take on that.

Usually suffixes only apply to things that come before them. A common exception is combinations with -moH, since that suffix changes the subject from the doer of the action to the causer, and the other suffixes might apply to either doer or causer.
