Thanks for the detailed explanation, I'm proposing:

"It can also optimize queries that use `OR` conditions in a `WHERE` to
use an index, leading to significantly faster execution."

since the mechanism of the transformation is less important, but the
outcome is that people can benefit from the previous optimziation
without having to rewrite their queries.
