When an administrator enables Policy B, this expression blocks every client whose major version is 0–33, but 34.0.2 belongs to the Nextcloud Server release series rather than the independently versioned desktop-client series; the existing manual uses desktop versions such as 3.3.50 in admin_manual/configuration_server/config_sample_php_parameters.rst:3793-3808, and this page itself lists 3.14.3. Consequently, copying any of the supplied Policy B configurations denies all normal 3.x/4.x desktop clients instead of merely obsolete releases. Replace the threshold, sample user agents, regex, and tests with an actual supported desktop-client release.
