As a select, child::A is single-level and child::B has stays-in-subtree; taken together, child::A/child::B is single-level and child::C has stays-in-subtree. So it seems to me that the compound expression meets the criteria for (b). As a match pattern, nothing can be assumed to be single-level unless it's anchored at the root. -Chris -- Christopher R.
