Oh, I figure that as long as the elements are clearly identified in the review, it's easier for those who don't care to skip the information than for those who want to see it to do without.

Also, just to be clear: "overwriting" usually has a different meaning, suggesting pompous style: "to write in too elaborate, burdensome, diffuse, or prolix a style." Do you feel this applies, or were you referring strictly to the quantity of material on the rules? (I want to improve!)

Otherwise I think you did a good job conveying the core of what makes AU tick.
Thank you very much!
