What I got out of this: regex precedence rules are really unintuitive to me.

What is a precedence rule in regex? You can either derive a string or you can't. Precedence problems result in ambiguity, there shouldn't be any ambiguity here

The regex operators can be ordered by precedence. The whole point is of course to avoid ambiguity...?
