Do the following not breaks the current "Only one intercontinental departure and one intercontinental arrival permitted in each continent" rule?:

LAX-HNL-PPT-HNL-SYD-PER-HKG

and

LAX-HNL-PPT-HNL-NRT-HKG-SYD-PER

If so I guess the rules will need to be reviewed?
HNL is in NA not SWP while PPT is in SWP. Neither of your routings would appear to be viable under the rules new or old. If and when HA joins I would expect there to be additional routing restrictions introduced.
