It might not even make idiomatic, let alone legal, sense, but the expression “[[and, as the case may be, or]]” appears ''thirty-three'' times in the {{tag|AIFMD}} implementing regulations. Our best guess is that this is simply a novel, frightful, way of articulating the already gruesome expression “[[and/or]]” — one about which the [[JC]] can scarcely complain, having noted [[and/or|elsewhere]] how logically impossible is the [[slash]] at the heart of “[[and/or]]”. | It might not even make idiomatic, let alone legal, sense, but the expression “[[and, as the case may be, or]]” appears ''thirty-three'' times in the {{tag|AIFMD}} implementing regulations.
