The token in the same response is a latency optimization.  It is used
to start rendering iframes and script with interesting content while
the code is still being processed.

The code is used as a short-lived token that can be swapped for a
long-lived (refresh token).

I would expect the attributes of the refresh token and access tokens
to be equivalent.  The primary difference is credential lifetime.
