The hell kind of bug is this? 3xpunch = kick?

Twice tonight I went for fei’s ultra and got flame kick. So the second time, I looked through the replay and here’s the exact inputs…
throw, backdash then…
down, downback, qcf, qcf, punchx3.

There is literally no kick button input anywhere nearby, so what gives? Is this a new ultra bug? or because it’s the PS3 version?

go to button config and turn off all kicks
try it again
report back

Havn’t had it since and i’ve switched to pc now… Does seem like it was just a random ps3 bug, especially because it happened twice in one night. It was weird because the replay showed no kick inputs, only punches. Oh well…
