So rules who are obsolete, in other words useless, should be omitted.
Things should be easier and more clear to users/managers when this is possible.

In addition, take this one:
Minimum 3 players in defence (DCs or DC + DL + DR)

It is not written clearly. The DC + DL + DR forces some managers to think that they shall use (besides 3 DCs) 1 DL, 1 DC and 1 DR as an alternative; they tend to believe that formation is legal only when you have either 3 DCs (DC - DC - DC) or 3 wide defenders (DL - DC - DR).
But you can have e.g. 2 DCs and 1 DR, that is (DC-DC-DR). This is okay.
Rule could have been: Minimum 3 players in defense (DC or DL or DR). Other rule prevents from having 2 DLs or 2 DRs, so in a simple manner manager knows that he is allowed to use the following: DL/DC/DR - DL/DC/DC - DC/DC/DC - DC/DC/DR as a minimum of course.
