Most of keys just register 8bit keycode as HID usage(or scan code) to host, but to support other complex features needs 16bit extended action codes internally. But using 16bit action codes in keymap results in double size in memory against keycodes. To avoid this waste 8bit keycodes are used in `KEYMAP` to define instead of action codes. ***Keycodes can be considered as subset of action codes.*** Like `KC_A`(0x04) is equal to a `Key` action(0x0004) that transmit keycode of *'A'*.

But using 16bit action codes in keymap results in double size in memory against keycodes. To avoid this waste 8bit keycodes are used in `KEYMAP` to define instead of action codes.
You can just use keycodes of `Normal key`, `Modifier`, `Mousekey` and `System & Media key` in keymap to indicate corresponding actions, instead of action code itself. In the end you can map most of keys just with 8bit keycodes.
To use other special actions you should use `Fn key` keycode defined with such action yourself.
