Oh, I see. I missed that "other actions" does not include "actions that are defined in other binding entities". This still seems a little questionable, since "define or regulate" makes it sound like contracts can regulate actions which they don't define (and which are also not defined in other binding entities). At least, I don't think there's any scenario where it would make sense for a contract to do that.
