    Description

      The automaton built from the graph token stream tries to pack common terms in multi word synonyms that appear at the same position. This means that some states inside a multi word synonym can have multiple transitions.
      As a result the intersection point of the graph are not computed correctly.

      For example the synonym rule: "ny, new york city, new york" is not applied correctly to the query "ny police".
      In this case "police" is detected as part of the multi synonyms path and we create the disjunction between:
      "ny police", "new york police", ...

      I pushed a patch that removes this optim (and creates a single transition from each state) in order to ensure that the intersection points of the graph always showed up at the end of the multi synonym paths.
      mattweber can you take a look ?
