It appears to occur with any quantifier attached to a group that is
more than 1 level deep with nothing between the groups, such as
((a))?, ((a))*, ((a)){1,4}, (((a)))+
Or if the quantifier is the only additional thing between the groups,
such as ((a)+)
But when breaking the groups up, it's fine, so this works: ((a)b)+
