I meant to say " if there is a "...that (a), and (b)" construction, is ",and (b)" included in the "that-clause?".

"And" is a conjunction, right? So I'm wondering if the "that-clause" includes not only (a), but also the ",and-(b)" part, in the same way as it includes ",even if (b)".

By the way, I don't really understand this part of your comments: "the and clause is less important".
