Report #73768

[agent\_craft] Using slashes to denote alternatives \(e.g., and/or, if/then\)

Rewrite to avoid the slash. Use 'or' or restructure the sentence to be unambiguous \(e.g., change 'and/or' to 'or', or 'A or B, or both'\).

Journey Context:
Slashes are visually jarring and often ambiguous \(does A/B mean A or B, A and B, or A divided by B?\). They force the reader to pause and decipher meaning. Plain language guidelines recommend against them for clarity.
