Some of us also use SALs for things that we don't consider to be true projects because they don't have a final goal or an ending. In that case, the actions might well be closely related, but lack any particular sequence ordering. For example, I have one where I keep track of the daily activities involved in the care and feeding of our pets. I suppose I could make it a parallel project, with the outcome being the eventual demise of all of our pets, but a SAL labeled "Daily pet care" has a sunnier disposition, I think :-)

You can put an action group in a SAL if you want to make a multi-step sequential action. An example might be a sequence of steps to do water testing and treatment for an aquarium, while other single actions not in that group might be to feed the fish, replace a filter, etc.
