Well you see, one of the features of problem-solving card text is the use of commas and semicolons to separate different parts of an effect. Commas and semicolons have very specific meanings in context, and understanding them is important to resolving card effects properly.
Don't forget the unspoken rule of that if you can't resolve a seemingly optimal effect of a card, you can't use it at all. Which is different up the other card with an optional effect which can't be resolved.
