Does it give any meaning to combine cutoff_frequency with the and operator?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

I have come across some elasticsearch queries combining cutoff_frequency with the "and" operator, but this does not make sense to me.

This is part of the bool query:

  {
    "match": {
      "content": {
        "query": "I has candy and cake",
        "cutoff_frequency": 0.001,
        "operator": "and"
      }
    }
  }

And according to this documentation the cutoff_frequency will (depending on the documents, but most likely) transform this into the following;

{
  "bool": {
    "must": { 
      "bool": {
        "should": [
          { "term": { "text": "candy" }},
          { "term": { "text": "cake"  }}
        ]
      }
    },
    "should": { 
      "bool": {
        "should": [
          { "term": { "text": "I" }},
          { "term": { "text": "has" }},
          { "term": { "text": "and" }}
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

But what happens since there is an "and" operator added to the query? Does this mean that the "cutoff_frequency" has no effect?
