It might be useful to report the specific conflicting instructions
that you have received and to ask that the "definitive list" at least
resolve the specific conflicts. Otherwise the list might miss some
issues that you ran into. Right now there is no way for someone
generating a list to know up front if they have covered all your
example issues.
