Where?
Where could it ever be? After "parallelism".

Actually, I specifically remember learning about this grammar rule in
middle school. When listing stuff, the comma before the "and" is
optional. Putting it and not putting it are both correct.
I see. I go by "Bugs in Writing" (awesome book)
Ugh. I have a profound hatred for that book. Rule of thumb: if any style
guide warns agains split infinitives, burn it.
