This is probably very trivial and doesn't affect anything except maybe
the size of the headers but I have to ask. When looking at the headers
of some ham I noticed - https://pastebin.com/H7euxqVX the two rules I
mention above are in 72_active.cf. Is there a reason for the number of
times it's listed? Couldn't each subtest be listed just once instead of
multiple times?

Not with the current documented behavior of the code, given the way those sub-rules are designed to work together. The goal is to identify messages which use Latin-script 'e' characters but also use many non-Latin-script characters which look like 'e' but are not. To make this determination, the rules require the 'multiple' flag without a cap on thne number of matches which a 'maxhits' parameter would set.

It is not recommended to routinely add the list of matched sub-rules to scanned messages.
