Repel Metal or Stone spell clarification

[nogoodscallywag]

Does a PC have to choose whether the spell repels metal or stone, or does the spell repel both at the same time?

By the title it would seem the type needs to be chosen. However, a passage reads,

"Fixed metal or stone objects larger than 3 inches in diameter and loose objects weighing more than 500 pounds are not affected. Anything else, including animated objects, small boulders, and creatures in metal armor, moves back."

Seems to imply both are repelled. If so, why wouldn't the title say Repel Metal AND Stone?

I think the 2 are, too.

I suppose they didn't called Repel Metal AND Stone, because someone could have said that's only objects made of the 2 types (melted) are repelled, and not objects "with metal inside but without stone" or "with stone but without metal".
With "metal OR stone", all objects which include a part of metal or stone are repelled.

Is it metal? Is it stone? If the answer to the first or second is true, then it is repelled. If it is both, then it qualifies as either and is repelled. The use of 'and' would suggest it must be both.
