David, I'm surprised at you!

No it means match a C element if it has an ancestor A which has a child
B.

It means match a C element if it has an ancestor B with a parent A...!


(I know you know that, but your natural language is not expressing the logic correctly is it? A <C> with an <A> grandparent and a <B> uncle should not be matched unless its own parent is also a <B>.)

Cheers,
W
