That would be bad; it's PH|SA, not PHISA (pipe rather than capital I),
and the parentheses mean that either the '.PH' or the '.SA' request
followed by whitespace causes a document to be detected as mm.

Square brackets would mean that any of the requests '.P', '.H', '.|',
'.S', or '.A' would indicate mm, which would indeed treat more documents
as mm but probably also has many more false positives.
