You're welcome.

Anchors are assertions about the position of a matching point. For
instance, ^ at the beginning and $ at the end of a pattern make sure
that the complete subject string has to match.

Indeed, "all words need to appear in the text (in the correct order)",
but without anchors, additional "words" may appear in the text. Compare
preg_match('/the quick|brown fox/m', 'the brown fox');
vs.
preg_match('/^(?:the quick|brown fox)$/m', 'the brown fox');
The former returns 1 (i.e. matches), while the latter returns 0 (i.e.
doesn't match). That is because the first preg_match() is content to
match only part of the subject string.
