It's not either-or. I explain the rule; there isn't any explanation
for why the rule exists.

Yes, so?

Not everything in that section is a fast-food chain in the American
sense. The French chains are mere approximations. I wouldn't call a
place that sells mainly rolls and sandwiches and has no place to sit
down and has slow service and no trays a fast-food chain.

Even in the real fast-food chains in France, the service is so slow
that they don't really qualify.

They are universal because people can distinguish music from noise.
Without rules, that wouldn't be possible. Music uses tones and
timbres that are pleasing to the ear and arranges them in mathematical
relationships to each other that also are pleasing to the ear. Noise
does not. Thus, music follows universal rules that distinguish it
from noise.

I haven't made any mistakes in this context.
