What do you expect to happen?
The quit flag is only evaluated at the end of the sequence.
It works for the NoClue key because the sequence ends with Tab.
The FA sequence ends with F1, not with A or 1.

If you want only A and 1 to be executed, you have to place them before the  
FA sequence, but then FA never will be executed.

It's not a bug, it's a "feature".
