Pros - condenses rules (50 word reduction, 4 sub-rules/rules instead of 10), higher readability
Cons - Lacks some specificity--including the examples in parentheses instead of as explicit subrules is also somewhat counter to the structure of the rules. The line between a rule and a sub-rule is not entirely clear, so these may be viewed as too "large in scope" for sub-rules.
