They're not the same. The second gives you [array[412,18],array[413,19]], which is often needed - the index arrays are enumerated pairwise. I think this means that when there's a colon present, the whole indexing expression is treated differently.

What I find odd is that you can make an expression a=b[3:5] giving b[[3,4,5]], but you can't have a=[3:5] giving a=[3,4,5], which would be very useful.
