Hi Mathematica community,

here is my pb:

 input:
Reduce[Max[a, b] == Max[c, d], c, Reals]
output:
 (d < Max[a, b] && c == Max[a, b]) || (d == Max[a, b] &&  c <= Max[a,
b])

when testing this output with 2 initialisations:
d = 2  a =  4  b = 3  c = 6  here d < Max[4, 3] but c is not equal to
Max[4, 3]

d = 4  a =   4  b = 3  c = 6  here d = Max[4, 3] but c is not <= to
Max[4, 3]

where is the pb?!
