John and I have previously discussed this issue, and in fact, I deliberately used ';'.

I use a semicolon instead of a comma because I want to distinguish it from the function
of the comma in "Unit" and avoid confusion between the use of commas in "Unit" and "Compat".
Because in Unit, commas act as wildcards, and in “Compat”, the semicolon means "or". So
I think semicolons are more appropriate.
