The global atom table is available to all applications, and it is used for things like class registration, window message registration etc, so it isn't just for clipboard formats. See [here](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/dataxchg/about-atom-tables#atom-table-size) for more details.

How is this different than writing just `text/html` in one tab and then writing `text/plain` in another tab? In this case `text/html` will be replaced by `text/plain`.
