4.4.1.15. Mixture of AND and OR - bracket replacement

	Note
	Space has the meaning of AND AND has higher priority than OR Parenthesis has higher priority than AND and OR

Examples:

Wanted: A hexagon head screw with either M10x50 or M10x60
```
Hexagon Bolt ( M10x50 OR M10x60 )
```
is equivalent to
```
Hexagon Bolt M10x50 OR Hexagon Bolt M10x60
```
If you simply omitted the brackets in the first case, the results would be much less clear.
In English, "bolt" is sometimes used for screw and sometimes "screw".
