Also, a character can have more than one AA group. This would be a way to have several simultaneous powers, even if they're all theoretically from the same "root". Disabling an ability in one group doesn't disable the other groups. It's slightly less flexible than the "M active of N abilities" form, but does have that advantage.

(AAs are meant to be the same ability applied to different effects. The phrasing depends on what you mean by the word "power" -- or "ability", "origin", "source", or "root :))
