I got 3.2.2 is what we're focused on. What was new to me is the idea that Africa-Middle East-RTW-Middle East-Africa can contain Middle East to Western Europe flights. I.e. that "RTW" doesn't mean "other continents" but instead means "the rest of your RTW that may or may not include the Europe/Middle East continent". The rules could be clearer on what is intended (allowing or not allowing that).
