It's mostly a style guide for writing short essays that will be read by decision-makers who are too busy to read. In reading over it, I felt like I it reminded me 50 times to lead with your bottom-line main point.
Also, be wary of any word with more than three syllables.
Best part I found were some sentences an editor had yanked out. Here are a couple (editor comments in parens):
"Production units that grow food." (Farms?)
"Inhabitants of food-deficient countries." (Hungry people?)
EDIT: *had yanked out of various analyst drafts
