Yes -- in general, in Apache, the configuration that applies to a request
can come from multiple places. In nginx, it comes from one location,
plus the surrounding contexts.

Per nginx logic, location 4 is used for every request for which it is the
"best match". It just happens that there are no such requests. It's the
administrator's job to spot this "brokenness".

What request do you make?

What (top-level) location{}s do you have?

Which one location will be chosen for the request?

Try those questions with each of the requests you care about, and see
if you can see why it works.

The same questions apply:

What request do you make?

What (top-level) location{}s do you have?

Which one location will be chosen for the request?

At this point, you could instead use "location ~
^/phpmyadmin/.*\.php$". It will match exactly the same requests --
can you see why?

Depending on the rest of your setup, there may be a reason to use this.

Each http request is independent.

Each nginx request is handled in one location.

For each request, only the configuration in, or inherited into, the one
location, applies.

This may seem repetitive; that's because it is. Until you understand
that point, you will not understand nginx configuration.

Good luck with it,
