JI come at it from a logician’s standpoint. “Or” means Boolean or.
Well from a logicians point of view, 'Or' can either be understood as VEL, a weak disjunction, aka 'and/or' or AUT which is exclusive, aka 'either .. or'. English does not distinguish the two and linguistically overloads the the use of a simple 'or' resulting in ambiguity. To use the Symbolic Logic definition used in mathematical expressions instead of the Classical Logic is the source of much confusion. In terms of the document we should make sure that the we are using the VEL and not the AUT. avri
