Compact Rules (compact)

Cut: duplicate wording; long “why” where the rule is already clear; examples in separate sections — fold into the rule line.

Keep: every instruction; every distinct constraint.

How: Each rule self-contained. If it only makes sense with a detached example, rewrite so the example is inline (e.g. “Drop filler (just/really) — prefer ‘I think…’ over ‘I just really think…’”).
