Yeah it's a departure from 5e and they have not made it clear how it will work exactly.

I'm confused how it's a departure from 5e.

When multiclassing, the levels of your classes and subclasses that normally have access to spell slots are added together in a weighted formula, and then the overall spellcasting level is used to determine how many and which levels of spell slots you will receive.

Granted, we don't know what that "weighted formula" specifically is, but isn't that just how 5e normally is? A level 3 wizard + a level 2 ranger is treated as a level 4 caster when determining spell slots?
