I think that is a different "crouch to roll". In most other games, you need to crouch before you can roll, often by pressing "down" and/or "down/left or right". It sounds like the often used stance descriptions, like "sidestep to roundhouse kick" or "run to jump". Imho, "crouch to roll", as a single command/move, means that you first crouch, and can then roll.
