I think Ady had in mind an ambiguity, and in fact disagrees with me, at least in part.
I had a different interpretation of to what "but not both" applies: I had thought it applied to not both a king and ace in the second of two or'ed conditions, whereas Math Man probably was correct in his interpretation as applying to the two or'ed statements themselves, making them an exclusive or.
