Grammer as currently constituted is not a lot of use in providing precise meaning. Mathematics does it better. Old men and women could mean old (men and women) or (old men) and women. Parental controls could mean something controlled by parents or something to control parents. Is it even possible to have a language without any ambiguity? English certainly is not one.
