Hi there 👋

Following the syntax for [**search filters**](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/app-search/current/filters.html), I wanted to know if one of the following ways was recommended/had better performance, given the two produced the same results:

option a (nesting the `any` clause within the `all` root clause):

```auto
filters: {
    all: [
        {company: "c1"},
        {
            any: [
                {a: ["a1", ...]},
                {b: ["b2", ...]},
                {c: ["c1", ...]},
                {d: ["d1", ...]},
                {e: ["e1", ...]},
                {f: ["f1", ...]},
                {g: ["g1", ...]},
                {h: ["h1", ...]},
            ]
        }
    ],
}

```

vs

option B (without nesting):

```auto
filters: {
    all: [
        {company: "c1"}       
    ],
    any: [
        {a: ["a1", ...]},
        {b: ["b2", ...]},
        {c: ["c1", ...]},
        {d: ["d1", ...]},
        {e: ["e1", ...]},
        {f: ["f1", ...]},
        {g: ["g1", ...]},
        {h: ["h1", ...]},
    ]
}

```

Thanks in advance.
