Elasticsearch multi-match query using a fuzziness criteria behaves in a strange way

and it returns documents named 'Caroline Gardner', 'Rödl & Partner', 'Mio Partner', or even a 'Bidding Mart Partner'... I find this behaviour strange, and would like to understand why it happens.

You have fuzziness= "AUTO:6,12", if Im not wrong (please Team Elastic correct me if Im wrong):

Term length 0 until 5 = only match exactly
Term length 6 until 12 = you have one edition
Term length > 12 = you have two edition

Your term has length 7, so you have one edition. Thus, received 'Caroline Gardner', 'Rödl & Partner', 'Mio Partner' and 'Bidding Mart Partner' not seems wrong.
