Fly: During any roll, Fly generates three maneuver or three save results.
how would this really score for Coral Elves in their home turf? If it is a Move or a save could it be a double save on the Coast since moves are saves for them on the coast?

When rolling "Fly" on a Coral Elve at coastland terrain, each fly icon generates one maneuver or one save point. Not more, not less. Coral Elves count their maneuvers as saves at the coastland but since "fly" generates saves anyway, you needn't to convert them but you simply decide to use it as saves instead. You are not allowed to double the save points by saying "Fly" generates three maneuvers and three saves, taking the maneuvers as saves sums up to 6 saves in total. That doesn't work. Each icon counts just one point either as saves or as maneuver but not as both!
The advantage on Coral Elves with the "Fly" SAI is that you have a unit that can generate "real" saves (there are not many in Coral Elves as you know), which might be important in certain situations where you are forced to generate normal saves (can't think of an example right off my head now) and the other advantage is that you can divide the Fly icons during a combination roll into...let's say 2 saves and one maneuver.

The English language has gotten sloppy about the word "or". Sometimes it seems to be more like the math "or" function, which means both could be true. However, non-mathematical usage, "or" means "one or the other but not both". The Dragon Dice rules are consistent in their usage of "or" to mean one or the other, but not both. Wherever it could be both, "and" is used.
