When does verifyMatch not find an intersection of token, but there are still potential matches found?

Question 

 

There is no intersection of tokens in the verifyMatch API, but still, the profiles are showing as potential matches in the UI for a given rule. Under what circumstances is this possible?

There is one non-empty intersection for a different match rule.

Answer

 

In this case, the comparison was triggered by another rule but the comparator will perform a comparison in the documents through all rules.  In this case, the comparison is triggered by Rule 8, but the match is showing through Rule 2.

 

The token process happens first and it is independent of each rule.  It finds the candidate pool and runs through all of the comparators in each rule.

 

Changing the external match rule to "SCOPE=EXTERNAL" for comparison in the normal match rules will not affect the outcome here.
