Hello FT team.

I was searching for a group of papers by several authors. Below are the
searches and the number returned. Note that this search is simply:

A
A or B
A or B or C

so the results should keep getting greater. But they do not.

(somm & nicotine) = 51
(somm & nicotine) | (somm & BPA) = 188
(somm & nicotine) | (somm & BPA) | (wild & byrne & putative) = 10 (TEN)

I am very impressed with the Foxtrot interface, as well as the feature
set. You have thought of many important functions that other complex
search tools have left out.

I want to buy a license, but a professional search tool must handle the
fundamentals like parsing a fairly simple boolean and returning the
results. I can live with the screen refresh problem i noted earlier, but
not this.

Do you have any idea what is happening and whether there is a workaround?
Removing the & symbols does not help.
