== Exceptions
This rule only applies in cases where the reluctant quantifier can easily be replaced with a negated character class. That means the repetition has to be terminated by a single character or character class. Patterns such as the following, where the alternatives without reluctant quantifiers are more complicated, are therefore not subject to this rule:
----
/<!--.*?-->/
-/\*.*?\*/-
