Yhea I just learned that now, it's been at least a decade since I looked
at the posix spec on test.
Should probably update the bash help to reflect that
as help bash (in my version at least) only says
EXPR1 -a EXPR2 True if both expr1 AND expr2 are true.
EXPR1 -o EXPR2 True if either expr1 OR expr2 is true.
The main oses I work on are XSI conform.

As I can just use the posix comform syntax, which is quicker.
Wait, which posix-conforming syntax? Because your original example, which
had five arguments to `test', is explicitly unspecified:
4 arguments:
The results are unspecified.
unless you're on an XSI-conformant system.
