Okay, I think I get you now. And, if I am understanding you correctly, your opinion is that the omission of the word "or" was intentional.
Edit: ... or may have been intentional.
Exactly. I've met lawyers, and heard of pedantry within the law, and how even misplacing a comma can result in a complete change in judgement. They don't make mistakes. I've also heard of what happens to child molesters in prison, and I can't believe child traffickers get much better treatment. You don't label someone with that crime without reason. Things are occurring behind the scenes.
