Hi Stéph, Your explanation is concise.
It is deep and intelligible, though Andrei presented the same solution. The key point is “The order of evaluation of logic terms is: NOT before AND before OR.” and so forth regarding it. I got it and even though I did not tried that out (I will), does make sense. +1 for you and Andrei. Now I am convinced it is not a bug.
