Effectively a compliant peal composition must satisfy (D)A.1-3 and  B.1-7: the rest just determines how it is described.

That much was always in principle true. You could always claim any method you ring (excluding jump/cylindrical) was Original with a *lot* of calls, so in that sense this really doesn't change anything.

The point was rarely what it was technically possible to describe, more the contortion act required to describe something that should be simple. Although this change does help somewhat, do you honestly believe it's actually a good resolution?
