And, as the case may be, or

Just when you thought an expression couldn't get any worse than the lilly-livered and/pr, the good people of the European Commission's crack drafting squad say HOLD MY BEER.

And/or on steroids, or maybe a hallucinogenic trip

A novel, and frightful, way of articulating the already gruesome expression "and/or":

"and, as the case may be, or".

This is black-belt stuff, gang: this is nested flannel. A flannelette phase, (displaying a keening want of ontological certainty) embedded in a flannelette phrase that also displays profound ontological uncertainty]]. There’s a portal to the fourth dimension right there. An information superhighway right to the boredom heat-death of the universe.

Now I'm not sure this makes idiomatic, let alone legal, sense, but it appears 33 times in the AIFMD implementing regulations
