These rules seem reasonable to me, but I would finesse the second point.
Whilst tabs are undesirable in code, I do often find it useful to
precede _eol_ comments with tabs.

    "function | guard = body\t\t-- eol comment"

Tabs help to align the beginning of such comments nicely; they help to
avoid random misalignments due to minor editing of code; and in this
location they can never change the meaning of the code.
