Flight Application component (H) copy and paste error?

I just noticed that under Flight Application, component (H) seems especially clumsily worded, looking like a copy and paste error to me:

H.A MINIMUM OF 3 AND MAXIMUM OF 16 SEGMENTS
INCLUDING SURFACE SEGMENTS BETWEEN ANY 2
AIRPORTS ARE PERMITTED FOR THE ENTIRE
JOURNEY.

I think the words "between any two airports" are there in error. I think the rules are trying to say "A minimum of three and a maximum of sixteen segments, including surface segments, are permitted for the entire journey." It makes no sense to write "a minimum of three segments ... between any two airports" when obviously the minimum is one segment.

Component (I) reads:


THE SAME CITY PAIRS/SECTORS CANNOT BE FLOWN
MORE THAN ONCE IN THE SAME DIRECTION


I'm not sure if this was a recent change. I'm looking at the rules as retrieved by EF.
